Pix and Music






Soooo....it's a Jake day. Deep into Chapter 3 on my way to 4 and this intense male is all over my head with a nice dose of Daughtry's, You Don't Belong on my player right this moment.

It's a dark and twisty scene with Jake and my MFC, Sophie. I find that music is a main source of the emotions that come through the scene for me. The driving beat and the confusion is necc to keep the scene moving--even if I listen to the song 18 times before the scene's done.

Anyone else feel the same when they're writing a particularly draining scene?

Gorgeous man there.. *sigh* he is delicious!

Music is a big part of it for me -- for me I listen to the scene and I try and make the scene play out in my head -- you know like it does on a movie when a song is played.. and then I TRY lol.. to put it to words. That's the hard part.

Good luck with Dark and Twisty ;)

Lovely pictures. Holy Hannah what a sight to wake up to this morning :)

For me, it's not necessarily music, it could be just a single line that does it for me. For me, music is just the background noise more than inspiration. Depending on what I have to do, I change the music. Speed metal when I'm under deadline, classical when I'm trying to brainstorm, jazz/blues when I'm trying to get in a mood...stuff like that :)

Wooo, helllloooo Jake! :)

As you know, we're of like minds here. :) Music is essential, like air. I can't write without it. Hell, I can barely function without it, LOL

Great to see you blogging!

 

wip - cross purposes

december's project is to get my nanowrimo from 2008 in shape to get it the hell out of here. here's hoping that it is salvageable since I wrote it over a year ago, and boy has my style changed.
