Just for Fun Friday!

I've recently discovered St. Paul and the Broken Bones. Feel-good-down-to-your-soul music.

Sooooo good. Loves it. Happy Friday!

RoboNomics Book I Soundtrack

So, RoboNomics Book I is complete! At least, it is completely posted up on Wattpad now, entered into the Wattpad Prize, and as I just found out, has made it onto one of Wattpad's reading lists. The list is entitled "Time and Eternity". So cool. When they sent me the email explaining that the book is on the list, they said that they 'love' my story! Yay! :)

Before I leave the story, at last, to the care of the world, and start work on RoboNomics Book II, I would like to give it a good send off. And so, I've compiled the very best and most inspirational tracks from all of my previously 'Music that Inspired RoboNomics Chapter..." playlists into a master list.

And so, here it is kids, RoboNomics the Soundtrack. A massive list of the music I listened to while imagining the plot, coming up with character foibles, and revising -- the endless revising that I put into RoboNomics Book I.



Stay tuned for another little goodie next week...

Oh, I can't not tell you! I'm planning on releasing a preliminary music taste of Book II in the form of a RoboNomics Book II Soundtrack! Can't wait! :)

Music that Inspired RoboNomics Chapter 16!

Hey everyone! A little late in the week, I know. But it's a busy one. And now I have the last RoboNomics Book I inspiration playlist until I start posting RoboNomics Book II on September 1.

In the meantime, here's the inspiration playlist for Chapter 16. Remember to check out the story on Wattpad this coming Monday, April 28th at midnight EDT. Can't wait!

Just for Fun (good) Friday!

Hey! Do people have today off in North America? Europe? What's going on, is it a long weekend? Working from home means that you don't know these things. Plus I'm not exactly a Churchy Joe so Easter always seems to creep up on me and take me by surprise.

It's like: oh, it's April. Past my birthday, just sitting here waiting for May and summer...do da do da do...

AHHHH!!! Long weekend? What do you mean it's a long weekend?????


Oh well. We'll celebrate in our own way, shall we? With a visit from my sister (so excited!!!!), cheap chocolate bunnies after the fact, and a song:

 

So peppy and fun! Although the video ends up being a bit...ummm...of a downer? :P

Music that Inspired RoboNomics Chapter 15

Man, what a week this has been. So busy -- no time for blog posts. Okay, I had some time yesterday but after I wrote a post my piece of crap computer lost the whole thing. I was too tired to rewrite it. So never mind that. Onto the fun stuff!

The playlist of tracks that inspired the penultimate chapter of RoboNomics Book I!

In chapter 15, crazy exciting stuff happens to Andrea, our heroine. I actually did quite a bit of revising to the chapter this week -- so it's going to be a lot of brand spanking new material! Fancy that.

When we had last left Andrea, she had just lost Austin in the crowd in front of Toronto's Economic Relief Center. When chapter 15 opens, Elizabeth is trying to convince her friend to leave the place. But can Andrea trust Elizabeth, now that her former friend has joined Chris and his Anti-Robotists? And what happened to Austin?

Can't say too much about the plot of Chapter 15 without giving too much away. I guess you'll just have to head on over to Wattpad on Monday, April 21 at midnight EDT to find out!!!! :P

Just for Fun Friday!

Okay, okay. I know. This song was part of yesterday's post: music that inspired RoboNomics Chapter 14. But this track has been stuck in my head for ages. And it's awesome.

Isn't that what fun Fridays are all about? Tracks that I just can't get off my mind!!

Music that Inspired RoboNomics Chapter 14

Hey everybody! Another week, another chapter, another playlist! I am very proud of the playlist this week. I feel like it's almost an encapsulation of the entire RoboNomics Book I story in five songs.

RoboNomics Chapter 14 comes out, funnily enough, on Monday, April 14 at midnight EDT. In this chapter, things for Andrea and Austin go from bad to worse to worst. However, just when our favorite couple along with all the other citizens of Toronto are ready to give up hope, the government swoops in acting as hero and opens "Economic Relief Distribution Centers." There's only one problem: the centers rely heavily on robots. Is another clash with frustrated, desperate citizens inevitable?

You'll have to read Chapter 14 on Wattpad to find out!! ;)

In the meantime, enjoy the tunage:
