I began writing in earnest at age 10. My first story was a half-page tale for English class, and the plot, such as it was, told of two girls who started a band one day after synthesizers rained from the sky.<\/p>\n

Some things never change.<\/p>\n

I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m participating in National Novel Writing Month<\/a> (NaNoWriMo) for the fourth year in a row, and there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still a lot of music in my writing. There may even be women starting a band involved. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s going well this year, and I may even achieve the 50,000 word goal this year. Please excuse me while I try to get Amii Stewart\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s cover of \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Knock on Wood\u00e2\u20ac\u009d out of my head now.<\/p>\n

To celebrate a steady start, here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a mix of songs that have been inspirational to me and my characters so far.<\/p>\n
