Hmm. When I draw out freeeeedoooom, the last part of that is 'doom'. Hope that's not a bad sign!

ANYWAYS, I "finished" my revisions. (Yes, "finished" will forever be in quotation marks.) I think I did a kickass job of them, which totally scares me because what if someone comes back and tells me my revisions suck? Then I'll feel like an idiot for ( Read more... )

I have to give a big shout out to my friend, Colby, who posted two songs from Eowyn last week. I am utterly addicted. I've been playing, this song, Unfinished Memories, on Death Loop all weekend.

It's sad and beautiful, but with a promise of a happy ending. Those are my favorite types of songs. My favorite types of books, too.

The rest of the songs ( Read more... )

My Little Secret by Cavo. The first time I heard it, it sucked me in. It has a beautiful sound, and the emotion Casey Walker infuses into the lyrics lures you into sympathizing with him... until you really listen to the lyrics.

The guy's "little secret" is that he's having an affair! He goes home to his wife/girlfriend (it doesn't really matter ( Read more... )

Two new songs are being played on death-loop today. Surprisingly, neither song is angry.

The first is by a band called Boys Like Girls. I've heard of them, but most of their music isn't for me. But, if you add in Taylor Swift, I'm totally sold. I wonder if she wrote this song, because it definitely has her voice in the lyrics (voice as in a writing ( Read more... )

I haven't posted any music in months. That's something I definitely need to remedy, so I give you a song from WE ARE THE FALLEN, who's album released last month. Just so you know, the album is awesome.

This song along with I AM ONLY ONE, which I posted a while back, are my favs. Beautiful music. Beautiful lyrics. I love trying to discover the ( Read more... )

Oh! Oh! I'm SOOO excited. I really can't wait for WE ARE THE FALLEN to release their debut album! May 11th can't get here fast enough.

I found this song. LoveLoveLove!

And check out some of these lyrics:

I'm on my own here and
No one's left to be the hero
A fairytale gone wrong
As night will fall
My heart will die alone

Ever after never came
And I'm still ( Read more... )

I'm so excited. My darling husband just sent me a link to a new band called WE ARE THE FALLEN. The band is made up of three former members of EVANESCENSE and Carly Smithson from American Idol!

I love Carly! I have her version of Dolly Pardon's "Here You Come Again" on my iPod and she's always been one of my favorite female contestants. Great voice ( Read more... )

Especially about a minute and fifteen seconds into it. I swear I'm close to throwing devil horns.

LoveLoveLove Les Miserables! It's good for my muse. I can pick just about any song and come up with good character background info or a seed for a new story.

They're done!

*wipes sweat from brow*

Actually, they weren't that bad. They were kind of fun, and I know I've definitely made the book better, but I think this was the easy part of the work that's to come. Maybe. Not sure because this is all new to me.

So, I was planning on a reading binge. I even went to the bedroom to grab a book, but as soon as I ( Read more... )

Creed. Their new album rocks! I'm not kidding. The band broke up a few years back, but they reunited and wrote about a dozen new songs. I was a fan of theirs back in high school, and I liked Altar Bridge pretty well ("Watch Over You" is my fav and a theme song for my YA), but I didn't have high expectations for this reunion. The radio single, " ( Read more... )
