Ramblings… April 22, 2023

April 22 2023

Hi again! Yep, I came back for more.

This time, I thought I may get you acquainted with how I write. I haven't done a lot of it in the last couple of weeks because, well, I'm still on school holidays and working freakishly on my marketing campaigns. Besides, I seem to write best when I've had a full-on day at school and relax with words in the evening. So how does this happen? Can I just magically turn on the creative juice maker? Most of the time, yes. John sits with me in the backyard with his guitar, playing Spanish tunes, and I turn on my Spotify and pick a playlist. If it doesn't suit what I'm writing, I change it up. 

What sort of music, you ask. My list is varied. From top forty, the likes of Miley and Meghan, to Mozart. I enjoy rock and can't go past Def Leppard and the next song may be Michael Bolton. Some days I prefer jazz or weepy tunes and R&B does it for me too. You would think it would be distracting but I just kinda go into the zone, except when I raise my hands and voice in song, frightening John and sometimes the puppies who sit on my legs while I write. Scarlett does not appreciate being ignored and more often than not, pushes her nose onto my keyboard. Yes, I sing to her. 

If you're interested, here's a link to one of my playlists: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1E36WrcytteGzZ?si=7ff1f6a0d0b3447b
