WIP Soundtrack

I got sick, so very little was accomplished this week. I did write two chapters in my new WIP, something to write alongside my other WIP "Bad Boy." It's not like me to have two WIPs going at once, but what with getting sick and not sleeping enough, I found myself in a fucked up state of mind. I'm not sure when I'll finish "Dirty Sex and Four-Legged Douchebags" (Not dogs. Dogs are not douchebags). If I have to be sick to be inspired, it might not get finished for a long time.



*Me with Hachiko, in more lucid times.

Since announcing "P.S. I love you" by Hound Dog as the first song as part of the soundtrack, I keep hearing hearing songs that inspire ideas and/or get me into the character's heads. Today I heard "Renegade" by Styx, and it was perfect for Jude. Yes, after "Hey Jude", and yes that song is in the soundtrack, too. The female MCs name is Ika, so if I hear any rock songs about squid I'll let you know.

I watched that movie a few months ago. Made me cry, it did!

Squid is rather underused in rock and roll.

Alan W. Davidson said...

Aaron is right, Ringo really missed the mark by not singing about a squid. Hope that you're feeling better, Nat.

Hope you're feeling better, but make sure to write down any fever-induced storylines.

Danielle Ferries said...

Feel better soon. Fever induced stories can be the most inspiring. Especially when music is added to the mix. And maybe some cold and flu tablets.

I hope you feel better soon! That picture is fantastic!

Katey said...

Love the picture.

Cats, on the other hand, are certainly douchebags.
