Welcome to our blog!
My chosen muse is Calliope, the muse of epic poetry, also known as the muse of eloquence, whose name means “Beautiful Voice.” She is the eldest and chief of the muses, and was also said to be the wisest. I am not particularly eloquent, and I do not claim to have a beautiful voice or to be wiser than my friends, but I somehow seem to have more similarities with her than I do with the other muses. She was said to have been the mother of several, some of whom changed the musical realm. She was also thought to have inspired Homer to write his Illiad and The Odyssey. (You’re welcome for that!)
