In Her Words:

What do you consider most valuable about your time at La Muse?

I loved meeting brilliant talented people from around the world, not to mention the breath-taking inspirational scenery. The owners Kerry and John and kids were completely delightful and unobtrusive.

Tell us, in a sentence or two, about the project you were focused on while at La Muse.

I was writing my manuscript for an upcoming book: A how-to, inspirational book about the invention process. I was also inspired to do 4 paintings of my surroundings. (see below)

What advice would you give future residents?

Sign up for the ride package, I enjoyed talking with John as he drove us around. He is funny, knowledgeable, intelligent, and a really nice guy. Also be sure to pick up a paint brush and capture the scenery.
