Great story! I like how the story is told through the eyes of the Muses. Well written and flows easily. I especially like the song she sings to him.

Sensatillia is not an everyday name. Greek, Italian? Lovely name. This was professionally written. The poem is a fresh of breath air, adding sugar and spice to this muse. So, this is the poem you created. Was wondering, if I missed it by chance. It has some complicated words and phrases. This is your territory, I know little of Shakespeare, but take a poke. A great poem, must had took a lot of deep thought. I'm in checkmate, I surrender me King and five pawns. Evidently, you worked hard on this poem. A virgin nor longer, your first sponsored poem. You pay a handsome 92 doubloons. reap your spoils, Sir Mikey, you earned it.

I was gonna put it on the front page but it's a lot of bucks from thirteen to twelve!! The names are all made up. Sensatillia because I wanted something that sounded a little like "sensitive". Some of the others for similar reasons. I am sooooo glad you liked this. I don't usually like my stuff and just find things wrong with it. But, this one I was actually happy with!! Thank you very much. Check your mail by the way. Are you going to donate five bucks to my contest? I need more people to thrash. Hahaha!!!! mikey

I know you got to get enough entries before the voting starts. I saw, there were only two entries thus far. I could enter something lame to speed up the process. You got my vote either way. I corrected me fansite problems I was encountering. Weird, i had to system restore to another day for the blue to fade. No harm done. I speculate it will be what, two days before the contest starts? What it hard promoting a contest? You chose a good topic. I believe, you own this beauty.

No. It's easy. Just think up an Idea and type it in the space. Dean just put up a horror one. There's five entries in mine now. They usually wait till the last couple days. They like simple stuff though! I was thinking of "What would you do to improve FanStory?" as a topic maybe. I don't know. It's only 6 or 7 bucks. Fun. mikey

That ought to be a good topic. I would give member cent pumps to people who vote. Say, after three--four votes, you get rewarded with a member cent pump. That would get people voting. They reward for reviewing. I think contests are just as important, need more voters. Just a thought ... another thing, them pop ups sure is aggravating. I wish they wouldn't had done all them updates. Also, I would have a wildcard trophy. It would be #6 but the fans get to vote on whom deserves this trophy. Hum, maybe, a trophy for the fanstorian with the worst SPAG. Give it a name? I'm sure you could think of one.

THis is another brilliant piece. You just keep on getting better. What a creative way to offer advice on how to critique writing. Great names for the muses.

I can see why you like this piece so much. It's very artistic, detailed, imaginative and well thought out as well as well written.
I like this: "She did not refuse, therefore she accepted." Could discuss that idea for days!
I have a feeling this will be the winner... hope I'm right. :)

This is absolutely marvelous and really captured my full attention from the start. I love how you presented the muses and their egos that, just like humans, can get in the way. I love your poem and agree, it is one of your best. This is a superb entry for this contest and I sincerely wish you all the best. Terrific work with this one.

He was certainly blessed with the finest poetic, artistic muses of all time, so apparent in his creative talent. You have related a fine story of muses that I had not even imagined before, my feet are always planted in the tall grass or forests with the animals, I guess. You have made excellent use of language in the narrative and descriptions and it was a most enjoyable read. Good luck in the contest. Faye
