I think we should make a habit of saying nice things about different music fandoms.

Swifties could overthrow empires with the power of friendship bracelets. Hozier fans have a solemn respect for porridge and moss. Classical music listeners have the dedication to loop one song for 275 years.

So after an accidental month-long blog hiatus (blame the misadventures of @celanimori.bsky.social ), I find not only have you lovely nosy readers kept yourselves busy by reading the archive of old posts,

someone dredged one up all the way from 2021 that I'd entirely forgotten.

The Sad Life of a Grammar Snob

So I’m workshopping short stories this week. I love workshops. I love the energy, the creative flow, the fresh perspectives you get from throwing writers together and saying “Go!”…

I have an overdeveloped sense of perfection both innate and foisted upon me by the excessively competitive nature of my industry

is that chocolate?

#Musician Life:

me: yeah, so I listened to one of my recordings today and I didn't hate it! :3

literally any sane non-musician, crying: what is wrong with you?

'tis the season for "hey do you want to play a concert? it's tomorrow" messages.

don’t mind me
I’m just drinking tea and listening to a piano trio composed for a long-dead teenage prince
and wondering if it made him happy.

overthinking an audition outfit
it’s a blind audition
literally zero of the jurors will even see my shoes during the selection process
why do we do this

celani mori @celanimori.bsky.social · Aug 30

playing “is that phantom flute music or a pre-audition stress-induced auditory hallucination”

for once, phantom musicians are more likely.

The bagpiper stopped in at elevensies today and played “Amazing Grace” for ghosts and garret. :)

Happy bagpiper morning to Bluesky. :)

ALBUMMMM

(I finally got to listen to it 😊)

celani mori @celanimori.bsky.social · Aug 23

one of my current favorite bands releases an album this week, and throughout the day my brain has been chanting

album album album album :)

so you get love in return, but what price do you pay? What do you lose? Your bad habits, your insecurities, your hobbies, your interests, your immortal soul?

celani mori @celanimori.bsky.social · Aug 24

“Your Idol” is frankly genius for the way it describes the comfort we find in music.

“Every time it hurts, play another verse…”

Losing ourselves to it, bit by bit, until it’s all that matters and we’d do anything to follow the music isn’t so far fetched.

Thanks to K-POP DEMON HUNTERS, I can now imagine that every boy band of the last thirty years are secretly demons in disguise.

I know what my face looks like. But sometimes I forget until I’m seeing my own burning glare in a camera…

my personality “hey!! let’s make something beautiful :)”

my face “your regime is dead and you will fall with it. there will be no mercy even if you beg for it.”

-profession mandates a dark wardrobe
-only appear at night
-highly skilled
-paid by contract
-know everyone else in the business
-sometimes receive job offers from complete strangers
-operate on a need to know basis (learn location, objective, and compensation, but no names of other players)

there actually are a remarkable number of similarities between assassins and orchestral musicians

"No, I'm not going to clean my violin at midnight by the light of the full moon"

is not something I imagined having to say this week, but here we are.
