A Goofy Movie… This is IMHO one of the most underrated movies in the Disney library and it’s slowly being lost to obscurity. Yes it’s dated in 90s cheese, yes it’s a little off at times, but I still love it. This song was always great… and now it’s been turned into a rock cover. When to Listen:  Pure positive energy!!! You need to … Read More From My Writing Playlist #Music #Writing #Advice

WHY ARE THESE NOT CONSIDERED CLASSICS!?!? I hear a lot of the classics stations play things from Motley Crew to Black Sabbath, but never Maiden… WHY!? When to Listen:  This is coffee music for me. When I sit down to start writing, I put on music with intense power like this. It gives me the push to get going. Readers, Do you have a … Read More From My Writing Playlist #Music #Writing #Advice

I love Maiden. There really isn’t anything else that needs to be said here. When to Listen:  Brainstorming characters. There’s a lot of good material, both dark and light in this song. Try listening to the melody and create a character. Readers, Do you have a question about writing, publishing, my stories, etc?

Just saw this movie with my wife and… actually to my surprise, I really liked it. Hugh Jackman ruined Les Miserables and Oklahoma for me with his subpar singing, but he was actually very good in this one. Though… I have to admit, singers with more skill did it better! 🙂 When to Listen:  This one is currently on my general playlist, though you … Read More From My Writing Playlist #Music #Writing #Advice

I swear if Gloryhammer’s albums were turned into movies, they’d rival Return of the King! When to Listen:  This is a character creation song. Sit back, close your eyes and listen. While processing the melody, visualize what kind of character could be created from this. Readers, Do you have a question about writing, publishing, my stories, etc?

Okay, despite the description… I’m not certain if this can be considered metal. I’ll leave that one to the readers. To me, it’s something more along the lines of 80s Rock taken to epic levels. When to Listen:  I admit, I just stumbled across this. I’m a big fan of Jonathan Young for the covers he does of villain songs. (Songs you don’t think … Read More From My Writing Playlist #Music #Writing #Advice

Not metal, but I don’t care. Anne Wilson is one of the greatest female vocalists of all time and deserves honorable mention here. When to Listen:  This is a hero song. Listen to this while writing up your hero. Think of it like the end of a classic 80s action flick. Readers, Do you have a question about writing, publishing, my stories, etc?

  This beautiful power ballad brings a tear to my eye every time. It has everything an 80s hair metal band would have and more. Definitely one of the band’s stronger songs. When to Listen: Eh… I mean there are two places I suppose you could. One could make the argument that this could be a […]
