As luck would have it, I read a number of posts today about how real fiction writers just knuckle down and write…instead of making excuses.
-sigh- Guilt and shame can be such powerful goads…..
Aaaanyway, I haven’t written a word of fiction, yet, however after hours of patient research I have found my new music. 🙂
The following video clip is from Two Steps From Hell – who else? – however this particular song is quite different in style and theme and everything else. Nonetheless, it has that emotional tug my writing music needs. Hope you like it.

I have an unfortunate habit of deciding to place by bottom in a chair and write, only to find that my attempt to find good writing music took four hours on Youtube, and that included reading up on everything from Austrian yodelling to the clip pattern of some dialect… Trying to find writing music is dangerous. 🙂

lmao – yes! I spent about 3 hours listening to an awful lot of youtube clips, but now I have a whole album to listen to. My music is part music and part white noise. The music eases me into the writing but then I almost tune it out so don’t notice the same album has been on repeat for hours. 🙂

I love it. I imagine you’ll create a literary masterpiece with that in the background. 🙂

Welcome. 🙂 Despite the name, the music is basically classical in nature.
