I hesitated posting this one because… It’s an acquired taste. I know, not for everyone, but it has a very melodic sound to it. When to listen: This is a world building song. You can focus on the lyrics or melody, either way, you’re going to get some kind of idea about the world you want to build. Readers, Do you have a question about … Read More From My Writing Playlist #Music #Metal #Writing

Not one of their newer songs, but I have to admit, this one grew on me. I’ve never really been a fan of their lead vocalist, but good music, good song topics (history/war), and a sort of neutral take is all something I very much enjoy. When to listen: As with most Sabaton songs, they’re really trying to tell a story. These are brainstorming … Read More From My Writing Playlist #Music #Metal #Writing

So the question I received yesterday really got me thinking about the drakeas species. While I did explain a lot of their attributes in the books, I feel like a little more detail might be beneficial. We see people like J.K. Rowling and George R R Martin do it, so I’m going to throw my hat into the ring. So, let’s start out with … Read More Drakeas Dragons. Who are they?

Not really on my playlist, but too good NOT to share. If ‘Masked Singer’ gives us nothing else… it gave us music legend Patti Labelle singing one of the best songs from Heart, one of the best ballad bands from the 80s. I’m satisfied with that! When to listen: Stop writing, sit back and enjoy, because this is something we’re not likely to get … Read More From My Writing Playlist

Hi Jim, I was hoping you could comment on the ability that dragons now seem to have to appear as humans. They didn’t have that ability in either The Story of Raiya or The Orphans of Haven. I find it intriguing, but kind of a dues ex machina. Can you provide a little more detail about how it works? Do dragons see themselves as … Read More Drakin: An Empire of Ashes Question??? #Writing #Fantasy #SciFi
