Now that was a moment that sent chills through me. What a great moment for idol. I am not a big fan anymore but because of this post maybe I should go back and check out what this season has to offer.

I was toying with some characters, noodling around, and BAM! The penultimate scene for an entire series popped into my head. Then I saw Maureen's comment, from the same album.<br /><br />It's exhilirating yet terrifying to realize I've got a million or so words to write...Robert C Romanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13955223936635159755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090034241516458003.post-13563394094282480772011-03-22T15:34:27.363-05:002011-03-22T15:34:27.363-05:00Wow, I'll start listening more carefully to ly...Wow, I'll start listening more carefully to lyrics. : )Author Leanne Dyckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12886667518427660865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090034241516458003.post-27776368908105385642011-03-22T14:55:36.964-05:002011-03-22T14:55:36.964-05:00"If music doesn't touch your soul...you p...<i>"If music doesn't touch your soul...you probably don't have one."</i><br /><br /><b>Great post, Julie!</b>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090034241516458003.post-26523397966262873122011-03-22T14:50:59.480-05:002011-03-22T14:50:59.480-05:00This was a great post, becuase I totally get the m...This was a great post, becuase I totally get the music thing. Right now my favorite to have in the background is 'Hello World' by Lady A as I'm writing. It builds slowly, and the tension in the scene seems to increase with it.<br />Your book sounds wonderful!<br />Favorite AI song- would have to actually be on the show, Carrie Underwood coming out sing Alone by Heart. Awesome!JMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03689756071577897741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090034241516458003.post-48635648339328615042011-03-22T14:23:27.947-05:002011-03-22T14:23:27.947-05:00I come from a completely different generations of ...I come from a completely different generations of people and American Idol is not on my list either. <br /><br />Music does inspire me, but it seldom writes the story for me. I listen just for inspiration, and usually it has no words, because singing disrupts my thoughts unless it is an old song that I know so well. I like instruemental music and I don't attribute a song to a book, but many songs to many books. <br /><br />But what ever gets you to write is a good thing and I'm all for it.<br /><br />My kind of music is way back in the 60's mostly. Old rock and roll inspires me greatly. But movie tracks really get me writing, jus the music. Wow<br /><br />Good luck hon with yoru books<br />Love and blessings<br />RitaRedameterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16610276663492366325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090034241516458003.post-2443252438761578412011-03-22T14:17:13.567-05:002011-03-22T14:17:13.567-05:00Love your post Julie!!

LOL!<br /><br />But I totally get what you are saying about how song lyrics shifted your perspective. I had the same sort of experience with My Immortal by Evanescence. I could hear my heroine singing the song to the villian who haunted her, while the hero stood nearby, trying to get her to see him and realize he'd been there all along and was still there.<br /><br />It was spooky how that gave me a new direction to go!Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01517092592545660754noreply@blogger.com
