Hey everyone, today is your last chance to comment or tweet me with your #resolutions progress. 2 random commenters will be chosen to win an ARC of RUN FROM FEAR and a copy of the iTunes playlist that helped inspire me as I wrote.
As for my resolutions (eating more mindfully and lowering the volume on my inner critic), I would give myself a B- on both. While for the most part I’ve made a point to put everything I want to eat on a plate and actually sit down at the table to eat it, I still catch myself picking things off my boys’ plates and walking around the house with food in my hand. And yesterday there was a bit of a cheeto incident at the park…
My inner critic has taken a back seat, but I can’t decide if it’s because I’ve brought her back down to a manageable level, or because I’m just don’t care as much about certain things right now. Hmmm. things to ponder.
This is the last selection before HIDE FROM EVIL hits the shelves! So tonight I leave you with another selection from Alice in Chains, and tomorrow to commemorate the release I’ll post the entire playlist.
I can’t really explain why I liked this song for my playlist. Just like I can’t really explain the lyrics to this song, FLYING DUTCHMAN by Tori Amos.
Rain from Patty Griffin’s 1000 Kisses album still makes me choke up every time I hear it. How could I not, with lines like:
It’s hard to listen to a hard hard heart/beating close to mine/pounding up against the stone and steal/walls that I won’t climb
easy to see how it made me think of Sean and Krista, right?
I first heard this song, A WARM PLACE on the Natural Born Killers Soundtrack. It is the perfect backdrop for writing an angty, emotionally intense scene.
