Hi all,

Paranormal Reads on Facebook is hosting me for today’s “Halloween Top 10” – check it out if you get a chance! Read it here.

It’s hard to believe we are already in October! Time flies. I’ve been busy with writing, updating, family, friends. Hope your autumn has been productive and good, too :)

Music, for me, is like a conduit straight into the heart of the muse. Some people like writing or doing other activities in silence. I can’t. Whether it’s driving in the car, writing a book, or doing daily tasks, I need music.

For writing, I create a soundtrack for each book. It’s a mysterious process and I have no idea why some songs work and others don’t. That’s the beauty of music. It works or it doesn’t. In addition to a soundtrack, there is always *that one song* that gets me inspired.

For WATER’S BLOOD, the key song was Furnace Room Lullaby by Neko Case (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nBt_e9tzdQ)

For RAGING FIRE, the key song was “Try” by PINK. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdHCec23BKE)

For EARTHBOUND, the key song is “Demons” by Imagine Dragons. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFQYaoiIFh8

What about y’all? What songs inspire you? Give you energy?

Hey all, I admit it, I’m behind the times when it comes to some of the best TV show series out there. Those being, CASTLE and SCANDAL. For CASTLE, I’ve seen all 4 previous seasons, but none of season 5. Why? Because the TV (even the free stockpile) never has all of Season 5 available to watch. If it did, I would’ve watched it long before now! As it is, the DVD set for Season 5 comes out on 9/10 and I’ve already got it queued up in Netflix. For SCANDAL, we watched Season 1 about a year ago, loved it. Been waiting for Season 2 but ran into the same problem. We weren’t home when Episodes 1, 2, 3 aired and we didn’t record it. Why start off a new season out of order when we were so interested in the cliffhanger at the end of Season 1? So yes, now that SCANDAL Season 2 is on instant Netflix play, I am enjoying it immensely. The dialogue is sharp, the characters have depth and interesting pasts, and it’s a smart and great drama. What are some of your favorite series?

Happy Friday!

I have a cough due to cold, as Forrest Gump would say, and am not feeling too well at the moment. Therefore, this blog post will be short and sweet. Here is the Mahna-Mahna song from the Muppets!

Enjoy and TGIF!
