As for the theme... Well, you see, if you are an author, you probably have figured it out already. All authors are constantly adding to and editing their work. Never is an author done with a story and perfectly happy with it. We always want to edit and change it. Massage the text into something even more 'perfect.' This perfection is elusive, thus the editing is profusive. (Is that an actual word? Probably not.)

Something else about authors... at least with me... I like to get my idea down as quickly as possible. Never mind grammer, spelling and the validity of words. That's what editing is for. In my first draft, it is the story that is important. Just *SPLAT* it to the page. Free form it, if necessary. Then, go back and clean up the trainwreck of dangling things, vulgar grammer and flagrant uses of the phrase "and then..."

The other part of the theme is about an author's muse. This persnicky thing known as a muse has a tendancy to rear its' creative head at the most inappropriate and inconvinient times. Thus, the invention of the cocktail napkin. Actually, I really wanted the background of this site to be a written on cocktail napkin with story notes but I wanted to make sure the site was both readable and fast loading.
