For reasons I can’t begin to understand, Metalite replaced their original singer. I’m not going to lie, I liked her better. She seemed to have a much better range, but I am willing to give this new face a chance. So far, she’s been okay. When to listen: This is a fight song, likely first confrontation between the hero and villain. I don’t know if … Read More My Writing Playlist. #Music #Metal #Writing

I’m sorry, I miss the 80s. Growing up in the late 80s and watching the slow decline into the early 90s was really amongst the greatest time to be a kid. Nintendo NES was everywhere, Sega Masters was where it wasn’t. Free range parenting was a thing, the internet was barely a dream in the eyes of computer engineers, people actually went out and … Read More My Writing Playlist. #Music #Writing #Advice

I love the original, and this is… actually pretty hysterical! When to listen Easy, when you’re having trouble writing, frustrated, or just suffering from fatigue.

Nothing about this isn’t absolutely epic. This was a video I discovered online long ago and was instantly hooked. I’ve since seen them live in concert and admit to being a huge fan. How do I describe their music? Slipknot if they hired Rihanna as their lead singer. When to listen to this song? Climax buildup, or perhaps during the final battle!

LOVE this. Just bought this album. I was actually worried about Dragonforce. Their previous album wasn’t that great. This one… pure 80s cheese and I love it!! When to listen: General playlist, as with most Dragonforce songs. This is some good positive energy. Readers, Do you have a question about writing, publishing, my stories, etc?

This song fills me with a great amount of joy. It’s debatable whether or not this is a Christmas or New Years song, but I hear it at both, so it counts. I used to rock out to this on a guitar with a bunch of friends. So I have a lot of fond memories. When to Listen: Ending, when writing after the final fight. … Read More From My Writing (Christmas!)

Again, not a huge fan, but that’s partially because I’m not a huge Tom Hanks fan, but it’s a nice movie if you can deal with him being… almost every adult role in it? When to Listen: … ugh… damn it. Once my eyes dry. Damn you Polar Express!! (General playlist) Readers, Do you have a question about writing, publishing, my stories, etc? Please … Read More From My Writing (Christmas!) Playlist

I admit to being perplexed by this song. It’s kind of sad for a Charlie Brown movie. Still it is pretty good. When to Listen: During the journey. When your character is in the middle of a question, perhaps trying to reach the first destination. Readers, Do you have a question about writing, publishing, my stories, etc?

Anyone who knows me will tell you that I am NO fan of Jim Carrey and the abomination that is his rendition of How The Grinch Stole Christmas. That being said, this song is actually pretty decent. When to listen: This is a quest building song, when the hero first sees what lies ahead of them and has to make the decision on what they’re … Read More From My Writing (Christmas!) Playlist

Hehehe… you knew after ‘Fairy tale in New York City’, that this one was going to make the list. When to Listen: Don’t, not when writing. Stop writing, then listen. I don’t want to know what people might come up with to write while listening to this one! 🙂 Readers, Do you have a question about writing, publishing, my stories, etc?
