Ringkasan
A goddess visted me. And told me to get to work. Writers were supposed to be writing, not just complaining about their writers block.She told me that what you dont use, you lose. So my imagination was something to exercise. Of course, the way she was dressed left little to the imagination. And as she got closer, it was more evident...Excerpt:A goddess came to me last night.She said there was a gold mine between my ears,
but Id have to start using it.
Until I did, I could spend none of it. And would
be working hand-to-mouth for the rest of my life.
She wore a gossamer-thread shift over her, which
was a bit distracting. Golden hair, clear blue eyes. None of this
covered her feminine features very well.
Have you ever seen gossamer? Its extremely thin,
and rare. Its the stuff young spiders put out in order to catch the
wind and fly to their new homes. Of course, its the same stuff web
silk is made from, so is extremely tough. When you walk through the
woods, youll find that across trails and catching in your face. So
tough that you can almost hear it pling as it breaks. So
thin that you barely see it except when you catch the sun glinting
off it.
So making an entire garment out of this would be
expensive, and humans wouldnt find it possible.Fairies. She said.Huh? I asked.Fairies collected and wove these strands
into cloth. She said.Well, that would make sense. Providing you
believe in fairies. I replied.They dont need you to believe in them. That
rumor got started by a writer and his stage play. A slight
frown crossed her face. Fairies only appear in your universe if
you believe in them. Thats the trick. They still exist regardless of
whether you believe in them or not. But they only show up if you ask
them, or expect them, even as a stray thought.Like the odd times that you see a single
small branch waving in the wind, but you feel no wind, and nothing
else is moving. I said.Exactly. But that might not be a fairy.
Might be a goblin. Might be a poltergeist. she said.Could be helpful. Could be dangerous. How
would I tell? I asked.Only by accepting it as it is and figuring
out how to talk with it. If you cant see it, you havent accepted it
enough, yet. she answered.So I see only what I want to see. I
said.Sure, like its always been. Like you dont
hear the teacher sometimes in class. Like when you tune out to some
recording and find it rewritten when you listen to it again - new
sections youd never heard before. This is old stuff. Youve been
through this. Selective perception. She idly played with a
loose thread on the beds quilt...Bonus Short Stories Included: Max Says No. - When the pet dog starts talking by refusing to get into the pickup truck cab, it was time to have a conversation with him...A Nervous Butt- Not the only talking animal on this farm, an expectant momma cow tells her worries to the farmer who is caring for her.
