Speaking of music the other day (A topic on my website Blog), made me realize that I haven’t shown you all one of my playlists in quite a while. Considering today is Thursday, I thought I’d pick thirteen songs, I’m listening to a lot to write my current WIPS. I have to have music playing in the background if I want to get any serious amount of writing done. I have about 400 songs on my playlist right now, I just randomly selected 13 to post here, because each song invokes a different mood, a different scene playing out in my mind. Sometimes I shuffle through a small portion of my playlist, other times, I just let the iPod run all day using the music in the background to subconsciously control the flow of the writing.

And just because I’m listening to my iPod right now, I’ve got “If I can’t Have You” from Adam Lambert playing on my screen. He was robbed from the American Idol title, I tell you . He was robbed. But congrats do grudgingly go out to Kris!
