I've had an idea for a novel for a while now. Several in fact, but this one in particular. Without disclosing plot, I think what I find most daunting about it is balance. I want to make it a glass half full, so that readers reactions are a reflection of them, not the work.

Do any authors out there use different music while you write to help find the right mood for the world that you're writing? To adjust the tone and pitch of your writing style? Or is it just me?

“They were both at the wrong end of middle-aged …”

God. Sometimes I actually almost respect my own writing.
#WriteNow #TheWriteStuff

All of which is my way of saying that I don't write for anyone but myself, but I wish that there were more than the (maybe) three people that care about what I write.

Writing today about sword swallowing of all things. This always seems to happen when I try to write smut. I end up getting lost in the setup and the minutia instead of letting my characters just do the deed.
