I don't do well in the heat and much prefer the other three seasons. Until your post I didn't realize other authors faced similar problems. What a relief to know I'm not alone with this summer-vacationing muse! <br />Thanks, Maeve.Caroline Clemmonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14914658854159456335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9182324694661837287.post-46258287293531703512010-07-12T11:03:10.681-05:002010-07-12T11:03:10.681-05:00Your photos are gorgeous!!

Fall is my creative time, not summer. <br /><br />Maybe our Muse has been conditioned by all those school years, in which fall is the time your brain has to get back in gear, produce throughout the fall and winter, and then in spring, we start winding down, giving way to other pleasures of the outside, so that by the time summer gets here, our Muse tells us that it's time to take a break and recharge.<br />Just a thought,<br />JulieJulie Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10242380140265459688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9182324694661837287.post-31413462280512170042010-07-12T10:07:57.718-05:002010-07-12T10:07:57.718-05:00Maeve, Hi.

I've complained about it on-line in a couple of groups and to friends, so it's been a real problem. Now I know that I, like you, am creative when it's cold out! Now, in Central Texas we don't have beautiful snow--sometimes ice--but yes, all my good writing occurs in the Fall and winter. Whew! Thank you. I thought there was something wrong with me, but my Muse has only gone on vacation.
