I can't work on this story until I finish my current one, but I would appreciate the feedback.  The plot is that my main character, a female with no name as of yet, discovers that she is one of the Muses, the minor Greek goddesses of the arts.  For those of us who don't know all of them and can't pronounce their names, they are as follows:

Calliope- Muse of Epic Poetry/Song (Poetry was often sung)

Clio- Muse of History

Euterpe- Muse of Lyric Poetry/Song

Melpomene- Muse of Tragedy 

Terpsichore- Muse of Dance

Erato- Muse of Erotic Poetry (erotic basically means romance)

Polyhymnia- Muse of Sacred Poetry/Song

Urania- Muse of Astronomy

Thalia- Muse of Comedy and Bucolic Poetry/Song (bucolic basically means a rural, or farm-like, way of living)

 

My problem is that I can't decide what kind of Muse she should be!  If you could give me suggestions on what type of Muse she should be and even name suggestions, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks for the suggestion, but what I meant was that I am creating an entirely new Greek Muse, not one of the ones I mentioned.  I appreciate the help, though.
