It's funny, but while music with lyrics always helps me get in the right mood for a particular type of story, I have an easier time writing with instrumental music playing. Sometimes I can do music with lyrics, but most of the time, it slows me down. I do like to have theme songs that get me in the right mode for certain characters, though. Often, I'll have a song that I'll play before I sit down to work on a longer story that takes multiple days to write. It helps me find the right mood/voice. For my NaNo novel, it was Halsey's "Tradition". For Galatea, it was a Billie Eilish song called "everything i wanted". For my recent Screams story Escape, it was Digital Daggers "The Devil Within".

Come now, Ray! This morning someone paid for my coffee before I pulled up to the Starbucks window. Made my day. And I paid for the person behind me. Hopefully it made theirs.

While they hardly solve the world's energy conundrum in one earth-shattering change, the tiniest little things sometimes make all the difference in the world, and we're all capable of making them happen.

Besides, Netflix and two-day delivery from Amazon rock! XD

Potent stuff. I'm jealous.

At that point in my life, I'll be yelling at shadows and trying to remember if I now wear diapers or not.

But somewhere in that squishy pink thing locked in my skull, I'll remember you. I'll remember all of you.

Keep Them Blinders On

30 Day Blog Challenge Day 8: What would you have to start doing now so that in 10 years you feel like you just had the best decade of your life?

It's not a matter of what I have to start doing in so much as what I should KEEP doing: Stay on task, keep writing and don't ever stop.

A body in motion tends to stay in motion.

I will strive to keep my daily goals and not to get discouraged.

The hardest part is fighting against the curve balls that life throws at me, but if I refuse to let them divert me from the course I think I will look back ten years from now and agree that this was the best decade of my life.

Not really much else to say on this subject.
