Music to My Ears

Getting back to work

Well I got back to writing my book yesterday and I noticed something.
I write whatever the music I'm listening to makes me feel. My story has so many emotions and the last thing I want is to feel them all again at the same time.

So I have to make play lists for each chapter. This way I can write some of the hard stuff and then relax and breathe. And when it hurts too much I can listen to something that will ease the pain and change my mood.

I've always used music to inspire me but not to this extent. I also like to read to music, specific music, for the type of book I'm reading. So this is in a way a new thing for me.

I'm almost done Chapter 2 and luckily it's happy memories. Remembering the beginning actually brings me joy. It's what happens later that changes everything. Up down round and round goes the emotion wheel.

I'm hoping I can get Jane Velez-Mitchell or Nancy Grace to write my forward. That would be amazing. I'll let you know how it goes.

Well enough yapping time to get back to work.

Stay safe and love your children.
