Last Call: <em>Shades of Milk and Honey</em> by Mary Robinette Kowal

Words from Shades of Milk and Honey by Mary Robinette Kowal, PubCrawl's Book of the Month. Photograph of woman and illustrations of flowers (1 + 2) used via Public Domain.

In Shades of Milk and Honey, Jane Ellsworth lives in an alternate version of Regency England, one where magic is a part of everyday life and any respectable lady is skilled in the manipulation of glamour. The thought-provoking quote above suggests that the presence of passion separates art from technique, which got us thinking about creative burnout.

Tell us: How do you stay passionate about your writing (or other creative ventures)? Can you see a notable difference between the words you write while inspired, and the words you capture even though your muse has fled?
