I've been writing a disjointed story/treatment for a novel/short story - in the form of responses to the perfect and fantabulous prompt - in the form of a song - hosted by my most crazy musical brother in arms Lance from My Blog Can Beat Up Your Blog. The only rule? Your post must be … Continue reading 100 Word Song – People Have the Power

100 Word Song – I Think It’s Going To Rain Today
She bolted from the drugstore. Leaning against the closed-door she took big gulps of air. Her eyes filled with tears; she looked up to see the sky streaked with gray. The kindness and warmth Beaufort had shown her was overwhelming. Her thoughts came fast and hard; This explained her emotionally distant parents. Lu was her mother. … Continue reading 100 Word Song – I Think It’s Going To Rain Today

It's the 70's. It's not a GIANT decade for me musically because, let's face it, I was born in 1970. Most of my musical influences were not my own. Although - lucky for me - my dad had awesome taste in music. When I did get the opportunity to make some of my own … Continue reading Twisted Mix Tape Tuesday 13

I would be a big fat liar if I said this week's mix wasn't completely affected by the fact that I am on vacation. I would also be a liar if I didn't admit that when I am on vacation I leave my life behind me. It has been a stretch to do anything other … Continue reading Twisted Mix Tape Tuesday 12

100 Word Song – What’s Going On
His name was Beaufort Jones, his family had owned this drugstore for over 100 years. He knew Lu - he knew Lu for longer than I had known the world. His hand rubbed a cloth over the gleaming counter, tracing large circles that had been marked for a century. Beaufort looked at me out of the corner … Continue reading 100 Word Song – What’s Going On

It's 1990, I am dating a musician (what's new?), he's a drummer (no offense to drummers but drummer's egos, no thank you) he's dropped the drum kit and is playing "percussion". I know, don't bother with the difference. If you're a "musician" there's a difference. Thankfully, he wasn't doing much live stuff - mostly studio, … Continue reading Beleza Tropical

Ah The Sixties, those were the days. Rock n' Roll was shiny and new, minimum wage was $1.00 and skateboards became the hottest thing, allowing kids to surf on asphalt. Not only that; but we got Star Trek, The Addams Family, The Jestsons, The Flinstones, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie and so much more! … Continue reading Twisted Mix Tape Tuesday 10
100 Word Song – Down South
For all of the decrepitation of this crumbled down street; the run down store front, he was impeccable. The perfect southern gentleman, dressed the part, like he was waiting for a full house. "Well now darlin', you're from up north ain't you?" His deep voice was musical, like a baritone sax, the bass so low … Continue reading 100 Word Song – Down South
