Today on my facebook "like" page I will be discussing books and movies. Books that were turned into films. I have now seen Divergent twice. Once in the theater, and once at my home when it was released. I thought this film was very close to the book. Veronica Roth wrote a book for all ages. It truly was a masterpiece. Telling the story of Tris, and how she defy's the "system" is a way for everyone to see that it's okay to be different. It leaves you wanting more. I truly hope that people find the courage within themselves as Tris does. Some of you may be asking what does this have to do with my books or my writing? I will explain that. I love to read. It's how I started writing to begin with. I want to share some of my favorites, and some of my love for the YA genre.https://www.facebook.com/AuthorDeeKing?ref=hl Feel free to come like my page and join in on the fun! Peace, love, and all that Jazz :)

Playlist Tuesday
Who inspired me to write a book........
Let's be real today. Everyone has someone that has inspired them in their lives. Today, I want to share my inspiration as an author. Rachel Caine. She is the author of the Weather Warden Series, and The Morganville Vampires series. I had the opportunity to meet Rachel at the RT Convention this past year in Kansas City, MO. I, (the dork that I am) started crying like a pathetic nerd. I literally broke down in front of this woman from excitement. Now, let me say this, before taking the courage to do that I had just met Richelle Mead, Veronica Roth, and was working for the infamous Lora Leigh that day, but meeting Rachel I became a blubbering idiot. Now, let me back this up. Meeting the authors that day was truly a memorable day for me. Truly. I had held it together with the others, and had acted professional. Well, as professional as I could, but when I had the chance to walk to her table. I just started crying. Like a baby. It was embarrassing. I am a grown woman, and I hear I was crying. Well, needless to say, she was amazing. After that day I had started thinking that maybe I could take the leap and finally write down some of the stories in my head. So, here we are. I have a book that is half way done, and I am excited to see my work become a reality. I can only hope that I can inspire someone to live their dreams as I am trying to. The way that Rachel had inspired me. One day can change your life, and hopefully that one day for you is soon. OR maybe that day has happened for you, and your living your dream daily.
On the back of Rachel Caine's books are here playlist. We all know by now, that I love music. I wanted to give you guys the sneak peek of one of the characters in my book. Here is his playlist.
American Authors- Best day of my life
Fatboy Slim- The Rockafellar Skank
Snow Patrol- The Lightning Strike
Pumpin Blood- NO NO NO
Fitz and the tantrums- Out of my league
As usual please give them a listen!! I hope you enjoy some of his playlist. (I think it fits his charachter..just fyi..)
