Muse Food – Cats, Butterflies And Being Hunted
The heroine is exploring a wild, nature-filled alien planet.
The tall grasses bend, moving against the wind. A twig snaps.
She’s being hunted.
She raises her gun, waiting, waiting, waiting.
A cute little kitten (or a butterfly or a bunny) emerges from the vegetation.
This creature purrs. He is small and he looks so soft.
Our heroine lets down her guard, not knowing she is encountering the most dangerous creature in the universe.
We expect hunters to LOOK like hunters. They are bigger, scarier, with sharp teeth or claws.
A cute harmless-looking yet extremely deadly threat would be a twist many readers (and characters) wouldn’t see coming.
