Writers need a muse, and said muses can be a little bitchy at times, keeping you
waiting when you are ready for a writing session or showing up in the middle of
your sleep. Mine loves to come out when I have music on. One song and you get
the story of a lifetime, a love story, a break-up, sorrow, all of the emotions
you can think of.
I am not going to lie, books also help my muse’s
selfish attitude, but as often as music does, so below is a short soundtrack of
some of the songs I listened to constantly while re-writing and revising
Feathermore.
The Pretty Reckless – Make me
Wanna Die
Within Temptation – Dark
Wings
Plumb – Cut
Within Temptation – The Howling
30 seconds to Mars – This is war
Within Temptation – Jillian
The Pretty Reckless – Just Tonight
Now, there are probably a 100
more songs that I replayed once or twice, but nothing like these. Anything by
Within Temptation is gold for my ears, so you can usually find it in the
background when I write.
At the moment though, I am a little obsessed
with “Safe and Sound” by Taylor Swift, It is such a sad lullaby. What song/s do
you have on replay? Tell me, I am always looking for new music. I am currently
writing the second book on the Feathermore Trilogy, so I am open for new music

Hi, Lucy. I, too, am always on the lookout for new tunes. I may have grown up during the classic rock/hair bands of the 70's and 80's, but I love music too much to stay in one place. I love 30 Seconds to Mars. Once I hear "Closer to the Edge" it stays in my head all week! I am unfamilar with those others that you mentioned, so I will have to check them out. Thanks for sharing.
