I use western soundtracks to get inspired for some scenes like riding fast-- no lyrics. For Garryowen, it's best without the lyrics since they were from another culture. The melody though inspires meRain Trueaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07994628226501093880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1625093777073151860.post-63860950882658251662020-03-23T10:13:05.658-05:002020-03-23T10:13:05.658-05:00Rain, I haven't put lyrics in my books but I&#...Rain, I haven't put lyrics in my books but I've mentioned the titles. I listen to music when I'm at the computer. When I write, I listen to classical because anything with lyrics interferes with my concentration. When I do email, blogs, etc. I listen to an eclectic selection of popular music. Right now, I'm listening to Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. I learned the hard way not to use a song title as a book title. There are dozens of books titled OUT OF THE BLUE so it's hard to stand out on Amazon. I love your post!

I understand the why not but just a line or two :)Rain Trueaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07994628226501093880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1625093777073151860.post-77582792126804843602020-03-22T18:56:19.141-05:002020-03-22T18:56:19.141-05:00Rain, this sounds like an interesting story.
