Day 4: Meaning Behind My Blog Name

Ooh, good topic. Actually, my blog name comes from one translation of The Illiad that begins by invoking a mythical Muse this way:

"Sing, O Muse, of the rage of Achilles..."

Muses were typically invoked at the beginning of Greek and Roman authors as they began to write poems/plays/etc. to help the author in telling the story as it should be, so it seems like a good blog name to me! haha. I don't know why, but that line has always resonated very well with me.
