Progress Report
Jan. 26th, 2008 07:43 pmYesterday was a fun productive day. I finished off "Choosing Fate" and got some work done on "Saving Tara." I also did Tae Bo. Now I am suffering. Apparently not stretching ones rib muscles (my sister the massage therapist will be irritated at my calling them that, but I never took anatomy) for months means they get sore when you stretch them and throw some punches. Ow.
So, since Zoukuto seems to be down, today we have word counts via Writertopia:
Choosing Fate
Saving Tara
Not too shabby.

melissawriting here), I thought I'd post the soundtrack for my books. Here's the rules:
"Pick one of your novels, screenplays, graphic novels, or short stories.
Tell us the name, the pub date & house if there is one. If not, just tell us the name & if the novel is in process, sold, shopping, or something else (i.e. everyone can play not just those on a shelf somewhere).
List 3-6 song titles (& the artist singing the song) that will give a reader a taste of the tone of said novel. Tell us why if you feel so inclined."
I'm just seriously picking one for this game (frost_light was great and listed a bunch of hers) because there's only one that's really obvious to me. Into the Reach (White Silver, 2006) has a full CD soundtrack, Harris Moore's Stone Circle. I actually went out and bought more of this artist's music to write to because it was so perfect for the mood I was trying to set. (I'd bought the first CD in Ireland, and was relieved that they were on CD Baby as well.)
I think if I were trying to pin down Departure (White Silver, 2007), it would be somewhere between the Celtic instrumental stuff from Harris Moore & friends and the faux-Anglo Saxon riffs from Lord of the Rings, but adding French Horn. I have no idea of such a thing exists. And Regaining Home (White Silver, ?) would build from there, and include more drums.
