On Being a Muse
Dear Diary,
I’ve been thinking about why we’re drawn to certain women — why one face, one expression, lingers long after we’ve looked away. Maybe it’s because she carries something we’ve lost. Or something we’re finally ready to see in ourselves.
A muse isn’t just someone we admire. She’s someone we *recognize.* She mirrors our strength, our contradictions, our quiet defiance. What we notice in her is often what’s waiting to be noticed within us.
That’s what every illustrated woman at **Storyteller’s Closet** begins as — a muse. Grace. Anouk. Bellatrix. Each one holds a different emotional frequency: boldness, vulnerability, mystery. When her story moves from sketch to fabric, she stops being just art — she becomes a mirror you can wear.
Maybe that’s why we created the **Find the Muse That Mirrors You Quiz** — to help you discover the one who feels most like *you*. The muse who speaks to your own creative rhythm, your contradictions, your story in progress.
Because when you find your muse, you’re not just choosing a character. You’re recognizing a reflection.
Until next muse,
A Modern Storyteller
