A Song No One Would Expect Me To Love - Day 14

I hope you have all been enjoying this insight into the kinds of music I like. Music can tell a lot about a person, don't you think?

Source. If you don't know what this is, you're not missing
much. It's a very odd song Treskie introduced me to.
It's called "What Does The Fox Say?"
It's something you listen to when you
are in the mood to be weirded out.


Truth be told, I haz a rather eclectic taste in music. I like a diverse bunch of music, ranging from some of Nickleback's songs to The Flower Duet.

Indeed, my entire family can listen to a wide range of music. We are all a bit odd that way. However, I'd say this would be a song that no one would expect me to love. It's an odd song, with odd lyrics, but I love the sort of sci-fi interlude into the actual song.

Have a lovely Monday! See you tomorrow. :)

God bless.

NaNoWriMo... Day 14

Yay! I hit 40,000 words today in NaNo. It's amazing how a novel can just take off, so long as you let yourself go and promise you'll be back to fix that one scene (or two, or three, or ten scenes), that are really bothering you. The freedom is in the JUST WRITING bit. I love it.

It's funny, isn't it, how a story can kind of end up doing it's own thing. In the beginning, Badger was going to have a hard time all right, but I wasn't expecting him to get hit by a car, or get chloroformed, or get handcuffed, or wind up as a suspect in a murder. I mean, I thought he had enough to handle with his Dad's death, and his brother's kidnapping. Wasn't that enough drama? Apparently not!

One of the things I love about writing is the adventure. You may think you have the journey plotted out quite neatly in your head, but when you go to travel it, it's much more vast and complex than you realised.

My advice? Go with the flow. Push your character to his ultimate limit. If you don't like what you've got, there's always the "delete" button. But the ideas can flicker and die if you don't write them down. Write them down, and see what happens. Go with the flow. Revise later. Have fun. Just be a writer for awhile, and not an editor.

Good luck! God bless! Happy writing, NaNoers! (And all other writers, of course). Have fun, be confident, keep writing, and good night.

(And don't forget, Josh Groban's CD is coming out tomorrow. BUY IT! LOVE IT! And, of course, keep writing to it. :))
