The Pantser’s Prayer
By Ray Tabler
I will trust in the muse; I shall not stress
She maketh me sit down in front of the keyboard
She poureth me strong coffee
She restoreth my laptop battery
She tidyeth tangled plot lines for sake of the story
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the blank page, I will fear no bad reviews
For thou speaketh via voices in my head; Thy wit and thy humor comfort me
Thou bringeth me a muffin in the shadow of a deadline
Thou anointest my soul with motivation; my word count runneth over
Surely publication and prosperity shall follow me
All the days of my book launch
And I shall dwell upon the bestsellers’ list
Forever and ever
Amen
