Very much so! That was precisely my ordeal this weekend so far. I had an installment in a story I was working on, that demanded to be finished first. And now here we are, with one day before school resumes, and all my homework is untouched.

The muse even got me to agree that this story was more important than grades. Which is scary for me, because I've been a goody-two-shoes with school all my life. Consistently straight-As since kindergarten, style of thing. And now I'm welcoming a few Bs and Cs if it'll get Cassandra to lighten up for a while. (And all for a story that can't be published and is losing online readership as we speak! *beats head on desk*)
