One Writing Album

Hi Jim, This may seem kind of stupid, but you talk about music inspiring and motivating you to write. Can you recommend one album, that if you listened to nothing else, that one album would suffice? Thanks, Lonnie Hi Lonnie, For the record, I don’t like being pinned to one album, genre, or anything I listen to what works for me from one minute … Read More One Writing Album

Drakin, where to buy, and what’s next?

Hello all! So it’s been a couple of weeks now, it looks like sales are going well! Thanks BTW! So I know I haven’t been around in a while since I published Drakin and for that I do apologize. However I had some inspiration come my way… and actually managed to write out a full sequel in a matter of weeks. It’s really rough … Read More Drakin, where to buy, and what’s next?

Dying for these guys to put out another album. When to Listen:  This is another coffee song for me. In fact, their whole album is a massive caffeine kick. I listen to them on the way into work and it’s the same thing as drinking a cup of black coffee. Readers, Do you have a question about writing, publishing, my stories, etc? Please feel … Read More From My Writing Playlist

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?

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.

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

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
