War With the Muse — Rachel Starr Thomson

Writer's block is a common problem. But what happens when your pen is all that gives you -- and everything that matters to you -- life?



As a writer sits in a jungle hut, watching water dry up and jungle life disappear, she knows that only letting go of control and allowing her stories to form themselves will save her. But is she willing to pay the price?



“War with the Muse” is a short story.



Rachel Starr Thomson is also the author of Taerith, the Seventh World Trilogy (Worlds Unseen, Burning Light, and Coming Day), and other novels and short stories.
