The Muses Among Us Is An Inviting, Encouraging Book For Writers At Any Stage Of Their Development. In A Series Of Firstperson Letters, Essays, Manifestos, And Notes To The Reader, Kim Stafford Shows What Might Happen At The Creative Boundary He Calls 'What We Almost Know.' On The Boundary'S Far Side Is Our Story, Our Poem, Our Song. On This Side Are The Resonant Hunches, Griefs, Secrets, And Confusions From Which Our Writing Will Emerge. Guiding Us From Such Glimmerings Through To A Finished Piece Are A Wealth Of Experiments, Assignments, And Tricks Of The Trade That Stafford Has Perfected Over Thirty Years Of Classes, Workshops, And Other Gatherings Of Writers.Informing The Muses Among Us Are Stafford'S Own Convictions About Writingprinciples To Which He Returns Again And Again. We Must, Stafford Says, Honor The Fragments, Utterances, And Halfdiscovered Truths Voiced Around Us, For Their Speakers Are The Prophets To Whom Writers Are Scribes. Such Filaments Of Wisdom, Either By Themselves Or Alloyed With Others, Give Rise To Our Poems, Stories, And Essays. In Addition, As Stafford Writes, 'All Pleasure In Writing Begins With A Sense Of Abundancerich Knowledge And Boundless Curiosity.' By Recommending Ways For Students To Seek Beyond The Self For Material, Stafford Demystifies The Process Of Writing And Claims For It A Whitmanesque Quality Of Participation And Community.
