Discussion Questions...?

...Should we have them?

I'm guessing yes.

This week - Song Lyrics. What makes them so damned effective? Or not, as the case may be. Got some favourites?

Come on people - lets get this site moving again. >:D

Here's A Thought...

How would people feel about having a series of prompts for short stories/long stories/novellas/whatever?

For instance, I (or whoever) would post a picture or a phrase or a link to a song, and whoever wants to can write something to go with it...any length, any genre, any rating, all that. And, when the stories/whatever are complete, whoever finishes first posts the next prompt...

Or we can do it another way, if you'd rather. Or not, if you rather that too.

Just a thought...

Oooo...and the prompts can be used for pre-existing stories too, if you have a WIP and are stuck on a scene. I won't limit your creativity ;)

Sigur Rós

Thought I'd share this...

Glósóli

It's a great example of that whole "show, don't tell" rule. I suppose, in its way, it's a short story. It's also bloody awesome music.

If Sigur Rós isn't on your playlists, they really should be - especially if you have a soft spot for whimsy. Their music is...transcendental. If ever there is a movie made of one of my stories (especially The Story That Rainbow Brite Spawned), I want them to do the soundtrack.

I also want part of it to be filmed in Iceland, because...really. Gorgeous.

Music

Playlists are awesome.

Got a good one?
