The description NOT given by Stephen King: The muse-guy “scatter[s] creative fairy-dust all over your typewriter . . . .”

That's the opposite of the way novelist Stephen King describes the writer's muse in his book, <em>On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft," </em>first published in 2000.  King's book is an essential read for all aspiring writers -- not just novelists, but non-fiction writers like historians also.

Here's the full context of what King said about the "muse-guy" for writers:

<em>There is a muse, but he’s not going to come fluttering down into your writing room and scatter creative fairy-dust all over your typewriter or computer. He lives in the ground. He’s a basement kind of guy. You have to descend to his level, and once you get down there you have to furnish an apartment for him to live in. You have to do all the grunt labor, in other words, while the muse sits and smokes cigars and admires his bowling trophies and pretends to ignore you. Do you think it’s fair? I think it’s fair. He may not be much to look at, that muse-guy, and he may not be much of a conversationalist, but he’s got inspiration. It’s right that you should do all the work and burn all the mid-night oil, because the guy with the cigar and the little wings has got a bag of magic. There’s stuff in there that can change your life. Believe me, I know.</em>

Your friend is going on a school trip to another country and has never been away from home before. You went on the same school t
iren2701 [21]

Hello. Your question is incomplete, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, when searching for your question, I was able to find another question exactly the same as yours, which asked you to write an email to your friends talking about the trip and giving advice on what they should take. If that's your case, I hope the answer below will help.

Dear friend.

I heard that your class is going to travel to the same farm hotel that my class was in the previous year. I would like to say that I was very happy that you will have this experience and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

The place where your group goes is beautiful and has many places to explore, rivers, and a very exuberant nature, not to mention the animals that are very friendly. I advise you to take a horse ride and participate in milking cows, which are unique experiences.

During my trip, I was so delighted with the contact with nature that I didn't even miss home, but I advise you to take a portable charger, as the demand for plugs and the time spent exploring the place is very high. In addition, the place has a lot of mosquitoes, so I suggest you to bring a repellent.

The local food is wonderful and there are several options, I advise you to try everything and don't forget to take lots of photos.

I wait for your answer telling me about the trip.

Graciously,

GB.

In his “Day of Infamy” speech, Franklin D. Roosevelt claims that Japan was dishonest in its dealings with the United States. Whi
storchak [24]

1) "... the distance of Hawaii from Japan makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago... [during which] the Japanese Government has deliberately sought... [false] hope for continued peace."

2) "The attack yesterday on the Hawaiian Islands... American ships have been reported torpedoed..., [and] yesterday the Japanese government also launched an attack against Malaya.. Last night Japanese forces attacked the Philippine Islands..."

The first excerpt shows that Japan gave the US a false sense of hope by saying they are reigning in their expansions and hope to continue to have peaceful relations with the United States. The second excerpt then shows what Franklin was talking about, in that they used the 'guise of peace to backstab the US in hopes of continuing their expansion eastward.
