Tag + Soldier

So Jack over at However Improbable tagged me with the Writing Process Blog Tour! She didn't list any rules so I am just going to do as she did and start talking about my book and do the tag!!! (Pst: On the topic of books and tags pop over to 'Till the End of the Line and read all about our new Space book!!)

1.) What am I working on?

I have several ideas I am juggling right now but at the moment but the book I am focusing on is the Sequel to my book Splintered Courage, which is called Broken Trust.
2.) How does my work differ from others of its genre?

Um, I'm not entirely sure. I suppose the style is very different than most, and so is the style and how I present the story, almost like its in second person. Unlike most fantasies that seem to feature a boy and a girl falling in love, mine is very much centered on friendships and how far loyalty can go, and how to regain trust once it is lost.

3.) Why do I write what I do?
Oh, lots of reasons. I love fantasy and there is something very exciting about being able to tell stories happening in a different world. Also, being able to write friendships has always been something I've wanted to do. (This is why most of my other story ideas our friendship-based, not romantic.)

4.) How does my Writing Process work?I've only been a Real Writer for like, five months, so bare with me here.

I lay sprawled out on my bed, or in a ball on the couch, or outside on the lawn and stare at my blank page, chewing a pencil or staring at my keys, wondering how to start. Then, if its a bad day, I will write for about twenty minutes, on and off, stop for a break, come back, write a bit longer, scroll through pinterest, write, watch youtube videos, attempt to write.... do pinterest some more... stare.... Then slam the computer closed and cry.

if its a good day I can write for a few hours with hardly a break and get lots done. I just need water. and apples cause writing makes me really hungry.


Somehow through all of this I present a story.

DONE!!!!!!!!!!

Well that was a short tag wasn't it? I was expecting this long, long ordeal but it was nice and short. Because I love all of you I am gonna let you hear current favorite song! This is what I've been listening to for the past week because it helps inspire me with my boys. (I might randomly do this every now and then. Hope you don't mind.)

I'll get it if you need it

"I love old places. They make me sad."

Day Twenty-Two. A song you listen to when your sad. 

When I'm sad I listen to many types of music.But usually I like something a bit wild, or lighthearted because that helps me deal with my sadness. I feel better listening to happy music when I'm depressed because listening to sad music when sad just makes me sadder. When I'm especially upset I'll turn up my music really loud and then I'll just lay down on my bed with my favorite stuffed animal and shut out the world, blocking everything from my mind except the song in my CD player. 

I listen to so many different songs when I'm sad that I couldn't figure out how to narrow it down to one. Than I decided to do a song I've grown absurdly addicted to and have turned on whenever I feel down and depressed. I listen to it and it cheers me up, it make me happy again. I've taken to listening to it on a daily basis.

 Demons 

This song has become a real favorite of mine for many reasons, but one in particular. Someone once made the mistake of asking why I liked Demons. Okay, for one thing its got a good beat, a great feel, a fantastic refrain and reminds me of  two VERY awesome hunters. I'm going to go a bit rogue and post exactly what I want and show exactly what I think when listening to this song. Don't judge me. 

When the days are cold, and the cards all fold
And the saints we see are all made of gold

When your dreams all fail and the ones we hail

Are the worst of all and the blood’s run stale

I wanna hide the truth, I wanna shelter you
But with the beast inside, there’s nowhere we can hide

No matter what we breed, we still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come, this is my kingdom come

When you feel my heat

Look into my eyes

It’s where my demons hide

It’s where my demons hide

Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside

It's where my demons hide

it's where my demons hide

They say it's what you make

I say it's up to fate

It's woven in my soul

I need to let you go

Your eyes, they shine so bright

I wanna save that light

I can't escape this now

Unless you show me how

So that's my song for the day!! I hoped you all liked it and didn't mind the random sprout of gifs. I was feeling moody today felt like getting a little fangirly. Did I chose this particular song just to post a bunch of random Sam and Dean pictures? well... yes. But even without the Winchester insensitive I would have shared the song. I just took advantage of the lyrics is all. Those lyrics are just so Sam and Dean! I couldn't resist.*Smiles sheepishly* No judging!

Goot-bye now y'all. I shall return!

God Bless!
