Fame and Fortune's Kiss

Rumbling hello, Big Kittie Lovers, the Kougar has been writing her little paws off recently, mostly blog entries and one article for Passionate Ink she will leave for a future purring-sincere talk between us. Finally, she was able to get a page done on her goddess story and begin another story -- what if you had agreed to a bargain in what you believed to be a lucid dream, only to discover it wasn't actually a lucid dream, but for real (sexy oh-so-hot yummy hero, of course) -- fierce fun meow!
Synchronicity strikes again! As it strikes with great frequency these days. Yes, when the Kougar was returning from her mailbox enjoying her splendid winter-colored prairie, John Cougar sang on her radio...message from the angels? Perhaps the Kougaress's angels will provide more clarity... is it? could it be? on the path to an artist's fame and fortune?
Fame and fortune these days ain't what it used to be. Well, it is in many ways, the soap opera, tabloid excesses and the opportunity to live a better life, both. However, for most from the Kougar's perch, her savanna tree viewpoint, it just looks like a fancier and more tortuous prison, these 2008 days.
Why would the Kougar chase the elusive chance at fame and fortune? As a messenger of the Divine Bast, she has her stories to tell for the benefit, the raising up of our beloved world. And to the Kougaress wealth used to equal freedom. The freedom to live as she truly chooses, and to assist others in achieving that same freedom. Yet, as the Kougar has come to understand wealth no longer equals freedom in our current world.
No, freedom, true freedom must be generated from the soul, from the heart -- and by the Will of us all. In action and in prayer. Freedom must be generated by the most ferocious and thunderous growl leaping up from the deepest part of our loins, from the deepest part of ourselves. From our divine natures.

Darling Big Kitties, take a languid stroll over to Title Magic. You will adore Evonne's blog about her over-the-pond's writer's organization, or organisation, as the Brits spell it. Moi's comment yowled below:
Evonne, luv to hear a report if you make it. Best of luck to Catrin also. So true about us writers in our ivory towers. Gee, if only that hero I'm writing about would stop by for a long visit. And ain't it true when we writers get out to party, it's a real parteee!

Fame and fortune's kiss from the Kougar...
