Since this week's writing theme is about intentions, and we are still discussing disguises, I felt like it needed to be a different kind of Music Monday. A side you haven't seen of me or my characters... Masquerades can be freeing, releasing inhibitions and allowing for deeper desires. Or, they can be the masks we … Continue reading Intentionally Disguised As Music Monday

Falling For Music Monday
In my neck of the woods, it's that time of the year... Technically, it's all seasons in a day, but the cool down is starting to stick more than the summer heat. So I'm starting to think of those cozy things. Hoodies, bon fires, sweaters, the apple pumpkin products... So this week's theme is a … Continue reading Falling For Music Monday
Music Monday History of Souful
In the book world, Soulful bar and nightclub already existed before Tweety and the crew found it and helped revamp it into the next version of it's life. So, what kind of life did this bar have? Can I show it with music? I like a good challenge... No matter what decade it was, there … Continue reading Music Monday History of Souful
Music Monday with Maestro Sly
This week's theme is Bar Backstories, and who better to lead this for us than Sly? We see how he becomes important in the series, but we don't see him before the Red Letters series picks up. He is also the late night host, the word wise guy, the music debater if you're there when … Continue reading Music Monday with Maestro Sly
Music Monday Tall Tales
This month we're talking about the bar world. For this Monday, I'm thinking about music that tells stories you might hear in a bar, with or without the beat behind it. After all, Tweety isn't our only unreliable narrator... What if short moments that make or don't make the main story are inspired by song … Continue reading Music Monday Tall Tales
Monday Music Lessons
What with the prior week on Woods, and this week's visual post, it feels like a good Monday to talk about themes and lessons with music. I listen to lyrics, and sometimes they sound like elevator pitches of the larger story, which is why Red Letters is so intertwined. If you are curious, I do … Continue reading Monday Music Lessons

But before the good started to happen to him? Woods was ready to give it all up. He thought he gave it … Continue reading Backstage Red Letters – Woods Musically Before The Band
Heating Up Music Monday
This playlist mixes both the Hot Soulful Nights and the Scorching Red Letters vibes. If pictures on a mood board can tell one story, and the fiction Friday tells it a different way... Today I can try to let you into my head for another version of the writing process. Because I love a good … Continue reading Heating Up Music Monday
Sinful Music Monday
Sinful Summer theme continues into this playlist. I'm thinking flirty dirty heat, innuendo spoiling treats, suggested sins to be had since it's a sweaty season anyway.... And what playlist could I possibly make for sinful sensations without including the very musician that when I see them, I see Woods? That's Woods, our main male, our … Continue reading Sinful Music Monday
Daring Music Monday
Hi all, aside from the usual writing related music, I am keeping myself accountable. I'm querying out the book again this week. So, not only is it daring music for my characters, it's music to dare me to do it too. Even if I totally talk about them instead... There have been times I have … Continue reading Daring Music Monday
