What happens when a struggling writer falls in love with an unemployed Muse? Only the Fates know...
Writers have spent centuries praising and cursing the Muses, as their artistic talents have waxed and waned. But it's a rare writer indeed who can attract not only the attention of a Muse, but her love, too.
Meet Sherman Biberman, a fair-to-middlin' writer who actually meets his Muse in the park. You thought there were only nine? Where have you been? Sherman and Komikós (the Muse of Humorous Genre Fiction) are parting ways, but Komikós knows another, out-of-work Muse, who just might be good for Sherman, and vice versa.
That begins Sherman's relationship with Vinteokaséta, the erstwhile Muse of Blockbuster Video stores. She's currently unemployed, and looking for some inspiration herself.
Hugo Award-finalist, Skylark Award winner, and Cable Center Book Award winner Daniel M. Kimmel showcases his wide range of writing talents in A Talent to Amuse, introducing us to Muses greater and lesser, offering tales in myriad genres, and topping it all with heaping dollops of the humor and pathos that has made him such a beloved writer.
