I have two muses: Psychotropoia, the muse of weird imaginings, and Polyskitzodia, the muse of multiple and confusing timelines. You think some of my stuff is off the wall? You should see the things I have which will probably never see the light of day. I have alt-Lois as a hitwoman, Lois and Clark as standup comics, a Clark in outer space tale, a sequel to "She's" that I doubt I'll finish, plus a couple of really odd ones. These ladies can be harsh.

I think the Archive should add a category for stories about muses. There are several out there now, and I'd bet nickels to noodles that a lot of FOLCs have never read them.
