Don’t ignore your muse—it’s the voice urging you to create. Following mine led from drawing the Lost Cactus comic strip to writing The Powers That Be science fiction novels. What began as playful comic ideas evolved into a rich, mythic universe exploring humanity’s destiny. Whatever your muse whispers—paint, write, build—listen to it before it fades. You never know where it might take you.
