It's Playlist Wednesday

     This week is flying by.. Sorry, I didn't fill you all in on Monday, but busy bee seemed to be my name. There is a lot happening in my little world right now, I am trying to play catch up. Today, I am going to "catch" you all up in my world. We have music coming out EVERYWHERE! We have bands people have never heard, that deserve the break. I finished the cover for Charmed Destiny. The next book, in my Charming Series, and I have been enjoying the beautiful weather. I am going to try to post some pictures of the bands or their videos for you. I won't be sharing the new cover quite yet, but that is coming soon, too.

We are just going to jump right in, and hope for the best. Haha.

First of all I have a couple of new bands, that have really rocked the Indie world.
Alice Sweet Alice, has really gone beyond the call for their fans. They have a great song, that I listened to, and now have all their songs downloaded on my computer. Now, another band that has a sweet, kick ass, sound, is The Sun Pilots.
Loved their sound, they have an alternative edge that you could really get behind.. Take a listen, it was well worth it.

Kicking Sunrise, was another one that I liked, I thought the music was different, and I do like different.
This morning I had a band that sent me their music also.
(FYI I DO LOVE THIS!)
This band was pretty damn good. At first, I was like, sounds like other stuff, but then it was like, OH YES! I am digging this. They are the Bedroom Hour. Man, you have to check them out!

Now, I get bands all day asking for if they will make it into my blog.

I am not gonna lie, I don't like everyone of them. Some just aren't my cup of tea per say, but I do enjoy getting to find music, and sharing it with people. It's pretty awesome. I am a nobody as far as the MUSIC world goes, but if I can give back, then hell yes I will.

Music is my muse, and it helps me feel when I write. Being able to have a lot of different music also captures what I want to write. For every song there is a feeling.. and for every feeling, there is a song.

With Enchanted Legacy I went a darker route, do to the fact that the book, is a dark, romance, crazy, witch twisting novel. Yes, I said WITCH, and yes the main Character is a Witch.

That being said, I wanted to bring a different take on witches, and the paranormal world. There is a curse involved, and some blood shed, but what would a curse be without blood shed? Some people die, some people are murdered, and yet, some people live to tell a story. I hope that the music I have shared with you all, find you searching for the bands. Searching for why I would use them in my books. You know the game that we play by now, if you like them.. SHARE them, tell them, etc.. I have yet to find a band that hasn't been excited about someone liking their sound. So, PLEASE take a listen see what you think. Be honest, and as usual have a great day FOLKS!

I will be back tomorrow with hopefully more bands, more songs, more everything.. Till then, stay awesome! Be you! Be proud! Be yourself first and foremost!

Taking a short break

It's FRIDAY! People! FRIDAY! Shout it out loud! Okay, okay, not that loud.. Damn.. Hehe

Anyways... I m going to take a short break for the weekend. I shall be back Monday with more news, more bands, and possibly some idea of when and what I am doing in my little world.

Some of you may not know who I am.. or hell, why your even reading this. Two reasons.. Your either a band, a fan of a band or you are interested in my upcoming books. EITHER way, I am thankful for you! Since, it is FRIDAY as I have just reminded you, I wanted to post a picture of a poem that I felt like needed to be heard more. Remember, who you are, where you came from, and where you want to go. Don't let others tell you that you can't do something. How do they know? Because they didn't try? Haters are gonna hate, ya know?

So, I shall see all of you again on Monday, where will discuss all kinds of something crazy as usual.
Peace! Have a great weekend!

Hump Day

Any of you ever wake up and think, This day is already on my list of bad ones, but then something changes.. You suddenly find out that it's not as bad as what you believe it may be. Then you feel a little softer around the edges. Well, that's how my day started today.

I am now ready for whatever is headed my way.

Yesterday, we talked about bands, and today we shall do that again. Also, we will talk about SWAG! No, I am not talking about your normal swag I mean as gifts, etc.

First things first, on my social media outlets today we are promoting what other sale. Whether it is cutting hair, nail designs, heck, even candles. We are promoting you, today. I wanted to give back to the people who follow me and help me throughout this journey. It seems only fair. I enjoy helping others, and when I get the chance, I try to do what I can. This is just one small step. Hopefully, there will be many ways I can repay you all back for what you do for me.

Second, MUSIC! We discuss ALL the time, how I can't live without tunes. That's not a lie. I couldn't write without it. I have been searching for Indie music groups on Twitter, and wow has the call be answered. I want to be honest, and I want to be polite. BUT I also want to be real. Not every band is my cup of tea, per say, but that doesn't mean that they aren't good.
For today, I will tell you about an Indie group, and then a big name group.

Puppet Rebellion is going to take the Indie world by storm. I just feel it. They were the first band that I ever listened to that was truly Indie, and they were the first band that made real contact with me. I enjoy their music. Definitely, check them out.

AWOLNATION, Man, I can't get enough of these guys!
If you know the song, Sail, then you and I can be friends.. If not, you must listen. They have a new single out, and man oh man, that song is amazeballs. Yes, you read that right. I said that word.

I would post videos today, but I am going to leave that till the weekend.

Alright, so today we have SWAG and two more bands for you to check out! What are you waiting for? GO! GO! GO!
Tell them I sent you. I have no idea why, but hey, at least they will know we all care, right. Isn't that what the Indie world is all about?

Caring is sharing. Haha. Talk to you soon, Dee

Teaser Tuesday!


 So, this week my facebook like page changed it up, quite a bit.
We decided to start giving back to the Indie community that helps me.

Yesterday, was Music Monday. Boy, oh boy, was there a different sound coming from people. All kinds of music was posted yesterday. On my Twitter, we did the same thing. There was a band that asked if I would listen to their tunes. As usual, I did. I was honored to have a couple of bands ask. I told the band FATKINGBULLA, I would mention them today. This band threw me for a loop. It's a latin group, but the music was the kind that makes you want to dance. Great beats, catchy tunes, and a fun band to say the least. I have nothing to compare them too, they have their own sound.

Let's be honest, some of the bands I won't love, but this one... This one caught my attention.
Music Monday also included songs from Puddle of Mud, Rob Zombie, Ellie Goulding, and more. The songs went along with Enchanted Legacy pretty well. I enjoy Music Monday so much. Truth be told, I can't write without music. They go hand in hand for me. I always take your suggestions, listen to them, and if you make the cut, then CONGRATS! Your muse, becomes my muse, to do what I love doing so much. I appreciate all the music of the world. It helps me find a peace..

On to Teaser Tuesday. We want others to join in on the fun. This will probably take a while for it to catch on, but we do love helping others. I am a firm believer in giving back, and that whole you get more bees with honey saying. It's the truth, though. If you help others, when you need help, they may be there for you. Being kind isn't just a phrase you should say, you should live it. If you have a teaser or you follow a book blog, etc.. let me know. I am always available for you guys.

Tomorrow, we have another day set up for you.. I hope you enjoy certain days of the week, as I do.

Thank you for being LOYAL! I see you, and I love you for that!
