Moods: ‘Creation’ by Audiomachine

‘Blame It On The Boogie” by The Jacksons

Moods?

A few ‘moods’ this time ‘round; the first should be obvious because of the blog title, but is also one of the music groups I listen to while writing or thinking about writing. The Jacksons are there and a ‘mood’ because I have been boogying with my revisions! Amongst the revising done...

My latest project was written with a constant synthwave soundtrack playing in the background. Sometimes the music can drive the creativity and productivity in amazing ways.
bradmax:
@wolfwood1203 I absolutely agree! In fact that last piece in the post was instrumental (pun actually not intended!) in crafting a major and difficult part of my book! I pretty much have trailer style music playing whenever I am writing.

Been A While, But I Am Back To Share.

Things have been quite busy in one way or another since Thanksgiving of last year. Trying to catch up on reading after giving my writing a break until February, Christmas, another birthday, work getting ridiculously busy and so on. Add getting back to revising/editing my book and so

Mood: ‘Will You Follow Me?’ By Rob Dougan

Let The Revisions Begin!

I am a few weeks off of my semi-planned schedule to begin the revisions of my first full novel. I just truly began this weekend and really didn’t get too far. Let me try to explain why…

I have written before that this book began as a way for my Renaissance Fair character...

@cerebus666 I can certainly make them both available, and I would hope both will be available by the end of the year, though the first version will hopefully only be a few months.

Looking forward to it @bradmax!

The Month of January

This is the month of my birthday, and as I rapidly approach my sexagenarian years I am pleased and happy to be where I find myself, health- and happiness-wise. I feel Blessed to be on hand to help my octogenarian parents, a promise made decades ago, and be working in the field of my training....

When did you first discover SuicideGirls?

I really cannot say what the genesis was, to be honest. This was two years or so after I moved from Alaska to the East Coast and was likely a single guy (still am) looking for a bit of a sensual thrill (still am). It was around the time I left Facebook, so I...

Welcome To The Lunar New Year!

What is it, what does it mean? Present history has the origin of the Chinese Lunar New Year beginning at around 1600BC. China's Lunar New Year is known as the Spring Festival or Chūnjié in Mandarin, though other Asian counties also celebrate it: Koreans call it Seollal and Vietnamese refer to it as

Mood: ‘Let’s Start The New Year Right’ by Bing Crosby

Each Year Seems More Eventful

Many of us do it at this time of year, look back on past events. Maybe many of us even go so far as to make a New Years Resolution, though many of those I now eschew such a thing. Myself, and I do not know if it is just

Cats In The Bradicombs

I’ve posted this before, and I had meant to do so again yesterday, but baking and the previous Bolg took up more time than I had thought they would. Anyway, here is the last Christmas fun I will be posting this year, so please, enjoy both Art Carney’s version and my own

Mood: ‘Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer Mambo’ by Billy May

Christmastime Is Here!

Did just a little decorating…

Did a little baking…

…and have a little bit of Sherlock Holmes books to tide me over…

…so there’s a good bit of Christmas cheer in the air here, and that’s the way it ought to be!

If you don’t celebrate, that is of course perfectly fine, as

I Have Achieved Something Mind-blowing!

To me, anyway.

Roughly ten years on and off (Mostly off) of writing and I have accomplished to end of the first draft of my first book. It follows the life of a character I portrayed when I directed a group in a RenFaire for almost 19 years. As director, I required my

Mood: I Write The Songs” by Barry Manilow

@fredhincanada tagged me in this fun l’il exercise, so I thought I’d carve some time out of my insomnia to share my own insights…

Obviously the object of the exercise is to pick one song from each artist or group named. I added one or two that seemed to be missing. Just the kind of hairpin I...

Whatcha Thankin’?

It has been another years of ups and downs, hasn’t it? Still coming out the other side of it more or less healthy, about as wealthy and hopefully more wise is an achievement, isn’t it? At least wise enough to know and to be thankful for so much. Right?
