Well, it's my favorite kind of thread because I can see what others are listening to, look it up, and find some awesome music. :D So, what are you listening to?

Scared - Three Days Grace








Don't know? Check out Pandora for a generated music player of music you like. Then tell us. :D

I'm listening to Royksopp right now. Their "Happy Up Here"song and "The Girl and the Robot." Trippy music.

Taken from If You Want to Write by Brenda Ueland (used only the first (and sometimes second) lines of each point to simplify list):

Quote

If you want to write:
1. Know that you have talent, are original and have something important to say.
2. Know that it is good to work. Work with love and think of liking it when you do it.
3. Write freely, recklessly, in first drafts.
4. Tackle anything you want to.
5. Don't be afraid of writing bad stories. To discover what is wrong with a story write two new ones and then go back to it.
6. Don't fret or be ashamed of what you have written in the past.
7. Try to discover your true, honest, untheoretical self.
8. Think of yourself as an incandescent power, illuminated perhaps...
9. If you are never satisfied with what you write, that is a good sign. It means your vision can see so far that it is hard to come up to it.
10. When discouraged remember what Van Gogh said: "If you hear a voice inside of you saying: you are no painter, then paint by all means, lad, and that voice will be silenced, but only by working."
11. Don't be afraid of yourself when you write.
12. Don't always be appraising yourself, wondering if you are better or worse than other writers.

@ Neverender - Hmmm... I didn't really care for that Tech9 song. The music was too basic & I didn't care for his voice.


Last download session was Rise Against, Ke$ha, and Silversun Pickups... 'cause that's how I roll.

I really dig Silversun Pickups. I've got an unplugged recording of them and they kick as much ass live and unplugged as they do live and amped up.

I'm listening to: Chevelle - Closure

Ah, I love Chevelle. They are totally under-rated. They're not the best live band, but their albums are amazing.

Hehehe... I also snagged a bunch of the Punk Goes albums. Punks Goes Pop, Crunk, Classic Rock, ect.

Some are terrible, some are incredible, some are just straight hysterical.

That pretty much sums it up!

I'm listening to...



Man in the Mirror by Michael Jackson.

(I'm aware that my taste in music is extremely diverse.)

.C.Dreaming of ... Icon : (Today, 04:45 PM) I posted a response. I don't really have anything that need critiquing.
Cuchulain Icon : (Today, 01:41 PM) If anyone wants to take a look at Seamus and Alania, I will gladly critique one of your stories in return
.C.Dreaming of ... Icon : (Today, 11:22 AM) Medicated writers block is even worse then the standard beast.
.L.Brat Icon : (Today, 07:26 AM) Writer's block is like Santa Claus. Only exists if you believe in it.
JJessie Icon : (Yesterday, 10:17 PM) Arggg.....writers block is a hateful thing...why does it have to come up at the worst times...
Isalith Icon : (Yesterday, 08:07 PM) whazzap
.C.Dreaming of ... Icon : (Yesterday, 07:44 PM) good evening
Isalith Icon : (Yesterday, 07:18 PM) heyoooo
.L.PretendThere... Icon : (Yesterday, 03:46 PM) Which story got almost-accepted?
.C.Spiral Icon : (Yesterday, 03:40 PM) Thanks for the advice
Steerpike Icon : (Yesterday, 03:32 PM) but i gotta head out the door. I'll check when I get home.
Steerpike Icon : (Yesterday, 03:31 PM) Thus my post in the Publishing Resources forum :)
Steerpike Icon : (Yesterday, 03:31 PM) Well, now I want to check to be sure. I thought, when I looked at the site, that they didn't.
.C.Spiral Icon : (Yesterday, 03:31 PM) crap. That must have slipped under the radar
.C.Spiral Icon : (Yesterday, 03:31 PM) they dont pay?
Steerpike Icon : (Yesterday, 03:30 PM) But they don't pay do they? Why not make the changes and send it to a paying market?
.C.Spiral Icon : (Yesterday, 03:26 PM) Bewildering stories says they could accept a short story of mine with a few tweaks. I feel happy! =D
Steerpike Icon : (Yesterday, 03:23 PM) Hate to see people undersell themselves
Steerpike Icon : (Yesterday, 03:23 PM) I did have one submission that I rejected because the author could (in my view) sell it to a higher paying market. He would have only got $25 from me. I told him if he failed to send it elsewhere, submit it to me again.
Steerpike Icon : (Yesterday, 03:22 PM) Yep. That's the way to do it. You can always work your way down in the markets later.
.C.Spiral Icon : (Yesterday, 03:22 PM) The money, for me, is proof of their approval
.C.Spiral Icon : (Yesterday, 03:21 PM) =D I always aim high
Steerpike Icon : (Yesterday, 02:38 PM) Hey cats...in following up with a post I made, I'd like to encourage everyone NOT to submit to non-paying markets. Your efforts and time in writing your story are worth something. If you think you're getting good exposure from non-paying markets, you aren't. Your name won't be remembered and editors at established markets won't care if you've placed 50 pieces with non-paying markets. Respect your creative output enough to demand some compensation for it. Start high up in the paying markets and work your way down. And never give your story away for free. That's my view :)
.L.Brat Icon : (Yesterday, 07:00 AM) Daily prompt updated.
.C.Debaser Icon : (Yesterday, 01:53 AM) lmao
Whirlmaster Icon : (Yesterday, 01:26 AM) Hi!Wow,I'm so dumb I just realized there was a chatbox thingy.
bookbuyer Icon : (08 September 2010 - 09:07 PM) Hi. Just thought I'd try this out once. It seems cool. :D
.L.PretendThere... Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:42 PM) Oh, sorry for disappearing. Creative writing is awesome. It's all poetry now, but I'm learning so much about poems I didn' t know, like meter, and how much abstraction to use.
.C.Dreaming of ... Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:27 PM) I can't figure out what to write. Its not writers block as much as lack of inspiration and motivation.
Isalith Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:24 PM) :D
Isalith Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:24 PM) lkfsnhgaosdkgksd
.C.Spiral Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:20 PM) =D how is creative writing?
.L.PretendThere... Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:17 PM) Ascenders, by the way, is still going. I take creative writing in university now and it steals my writing time. But I work on Ascenders.
.L.PretendThere... Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:16 PM) Oh then. hehe
.C.Spiral Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:15 PM) they're safe for now
.C.Spiral Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:14 PM) mhmm
.L.PretendThere... Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:13 PM) Wait huh? I mean my Forerunner prediction--
Isalith Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:11 PM) Im heree
.C.Spiral Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:11 PM) well, no one who will talk
.C.Spiral Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:10 PM) no witnesses, see?
.C.Spiral Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:10 PM) nope
.L.PretendThere... Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:07 PM) Was my prediction right?
.C.Spiral Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:06 PM) Pen^2 raged at me when he read it
.C.Spiral Icon : (08 September 2010 - 08:06 PM) :D just wait till you see chapter 12
.L.PretendThere... Icon : (08 September 2010 - 07:56 PM) Oh yeah, Spiral, chapter 11 was amazing.
.C.Spiral Icon : (08 September 2010 - 07:23 PM) Mad scientist weapons ahoy
.C.Spiral Icon : (08 September 2010 - 07:23 PM) Next few chapters are going to be insanely climactic
.C.Spiral Icon : (08 September 2010 - 07:22 PM) Can't believe how far I've come with Forerunner
Isalith Icon : (08 September 2010 - 07:12 PM) IM SOOOO HAPPY :DDDD
