Good evening guys. Another time here and away from my laptop for a second. Going back to work once I am done here though. I am grateful for all I have and how much I have learned over these past few months. One thing is for sure though, Things have changed. Drastically.
And this is where I announce that it is Tuesday and as such, we have TTT aka Three Tunes Tuesday. What is this about? Founded by @ablaze, the jist goes:
Every Tuesday I'm going to share 3 songs which I like to listen to and I invite your feedback in the comments below. Better still, why not have a blast of your own Three Tune Tuesday and mention me in the post and I'll come and find the post and upvote it. If you could also use #threetunetuesday tag that would be great, as that is what I use when sifting through all the entries every Wednesday. It'll be a sweet way for us all to discover new music. You'll also be in with a chance of winning the prize.

And for this episode my TTT, I will be sharing a couple of songs I term the writer's dream. Why? You would find out as you listen unless you don't actively dream up your characters and story plots. I don't just say it as general knowledge but also because I am sure writer's would be able to relate. We have an active mind! Even day dreamers!
First song...
Teya Dora - DŽANUM
I don't know if it is the theme of blood shed and war from this song that gets me so but I have always been attracted to very dark things. From what I read, she is a Serbian singer and well, the article says she used herself as the subject to relate to the constant war that used to happen there. Reminds me of the current war with Israel and Palestine. Honestly, I avoid that news because all I want is peace.
However, this song is the oasis of a writer who may be writing a heartbreaking tale. Maybe a tragedy or even betrayal. So many scenes when I listen. My mind explodes with all the ways a story can go. And from what I gathered, some other writers may feel that way when they listen.
Joel Sunny - LUMINARY
Ever listened to the violin? Oh this dude totally wrote this for a book. Can't remember the name but it is a fantasy genre. Something about the NIGHT COURTS.
This song is perfect for the development of the story. I am a drama queen and love to add that element into my stories. Drama. The build-up to that cliff fall, that realization, that moment when the character is at a loss. Do you get me? Where are my writers? This is perfect for my FAE. The build up is coming after all... So many secrets coming to light!
Nicki Minaj - YOUR LOVE
Okay this is a bit more modern. And it has great story telling skills to me. From the video I mean. Shifu/Student love story. Beautiful to me. And this song never gets old for me. Been years and I still get a burst of ideas when I listen.
Did you listen to any? Which was your favourite? Did you have one? I would love my writers, yes including you @jhymi to come on this one and tell me which they really liked. How about you @tengolotodo? Pick a favourite?
That is it from me. You looking for me? I'll be munching on some fruits in my bedroom on my desk.
