This weekend, I worked on another plot point, and this time I have the jukebox quietly telling on characters. But what I wanted to say had a lot of options. First we have the type of dance song that Tweety might admit to. Maybe. Because our main character being honest with herself is not her … Continue reading Setting A Scene With Music Mondy

A Prideful Music Monday
June is Pride month, and it feels right to highlight the one character that my readers might fall in love with who won't respond in kind. Sly is our other host, the wise one, and something of a Bibliophile or a Sapiosexual on the surface. But, under his calm stoic ways, Sly is someone who … Continue reading A Prideful Music Monday
Memorial Monday Music
This Memorial Day weekend, while we remember the fallen, I started to think about the only character (so far) that I have written into existence and didn't simply write them off the screen.I will not name names for spoilers, but I will say that it is not a violent passing, more an age thing. And … Continue reading Memorial Monday Music
Tweety’s Musical Arc Monday
This week I was dreaming about a new character in the fourth book. I won't drop spoilers yet, but I did start drafting that a little bit. Though, that did make me think about some of the main characters' arcs overall. Since it was Tweety who gave me the biggest arc changes to consider, I … Continue reading Tweety’s Musical Arc Monday
Music Monday Tweety Style
For weeks now, I have been stuck in my Male Main Character Woods POV trying to find the best moments. I may have jumped into another character voice here or there too, someone newer that I don't want to spoil yet. But it's time to listen to Tweety again. She's our Main Female Character. She's … Continue reading Music Monday Tweety Style
Woods Chapter Titles For Music Monday
Another week down, and it flew by so fast. Some months I can write fast and produce a book in a month. Other times the one section needs to sit on the back burner reducing until it gives me the essence of what it is, not just what it could be. So, this week I … Continue reading Woods Chapter Titles For Music Monday
Music Monday Chapter Titles Edition
This week, I am still in the Woods world, working on a scene that needs just the right flirty phrasing with that weighted double meaning. The scene came before the lead in, so I've spent 3 days just picturing out the moments, as if it was choreographing a fight scene. Now that it's reasonably stable, … Continue reading Music Monday Chapter Titles Edition
Woods POV Music Monday
This week, I am deep in rewrites and adjusting, so I have my character playlists when I flip Points Of View. The biggest one that speaks through music is of course the main musician. Woods is also the Male Main Character. So, without much explanation, here's his mind in musical lyrics. Of course, they are … Continue reading Woods POV Music Monday
Music Monday with the band
Last Music Monday, I teased characters from the other MCs' world. Today I thought it best to meet the band themselves, with an interview of sorts. There are 4 members, and for the 5th song, it’ll be their type of sound. But first, I have to say that they are not a real band, nor … Continue reading Music Monday with the band
Music Monday, Library Edition
If you know anything about me, outside of my working on being a publishable author, you might remember that I am a library lifer. Meaning most of my career has been in library land. I’ve done a range of work, from shelving books, to checking them in or out, to behind the scenes processing them, … Continue reading Music Monday, Library Edition
