I've noticed a couple people doing this, where they put clips of music or songs within their stories here, either to emote a certain mood or emphasize something the writer feels to be poignant. While I'm personally not a big fan of inserting the clips within the story itself, its true that I do find a lot of songs help with inspiration, or help me try to think of the mood or tone that I want to try and emulate. So I guess this thread is where you can put your songs or soundtracks for the stories you happen to be writing, and tell people why they matter and what they mean to your story.

 

For the Dissidia novelization:

 

Garland.

 

 

This song is sort of why I actually think Garland is something of a tragic character. He's a brave warrior, but somehow, in the very back of his mind, he's afraid of death in spite of his boldness. To avoid the inevitable finality of his life, he jumps into a timewarp, only to find a new problem: what it means to exist perpetually, with no meaning or ability to create anything with his life. Thus, he's faced with two prospective eternities: one being of death, and one being of a life that never seems to matter. This song highlights that lament, of trying to figure out what the point of your life is at the end of it all, and trying to come to grips with, if I might quote Calvin and Hobbes, "The horror of non-being versus the torment of existence."

 

 

For my OC story, I listen to

For a wintery feeling, but also loss, as well as

for a vauge sense of unease, despite the upbeat lyrics.

Every good thing I've written in ANY story was posted while playing this one, my number 1 inspiration.

I apologize if this is semi off topic, but I just wanted to say I really respect the passion you seem to have for writing, it's inspiring.  

I've only got the ideas down on paper. Haven't started any heavy writing yet....I'm going to very soon though since this month is NaNoWriMo or however it's spelled

This is for 2 graphic novels I am creating, a girl in her last years of high school (1st novel) and beginning years in college (2nd novel). It has a sarcastic and pessimistic outlook on her views about her adventures, the people she met, and the frustrations she faced everyday. The main character is constantly pushed down but continues rising again, her demeanor becoming more bitter each time. She does not want to change who she is or become a cold hearted soul......how can she remain the same when such atrocities are inflicted upon her every second of the day? Her already solitary and silent attitude makes her the perfect target for these dominating individuals who want nothing more than control. Will she keep her lips sealed tight and turn her cheek? Or will she finally take a stand and fight back even though it could very well mean the end of her future dreams?

This is a tale about a young woman who suddenly falls ill. The amount of scars, bruises, and other symptoms are astonishing yet no medicine thus far can relieve the pain. While asleep at her computer desk she feels a cool breeze across her face. She awakes from her slumber and traverses to her closet door, falling into a new world. She meets an unlikely companion and partner who is the complete opposite of herself. Both have the sickness. Connected through illness. The only way to cure them is retrieve a special vial filled with something so precious and powerful, it will grant abilities beyond comparison. Together they must "share in an adventure" across the strange and exotic new world to seize this special medicine while running from the evil forces that wish to take it for their own evil agenda.

This music goes to the story above as well but this is more of the adventure aspect of it while the other is the beginning of the journey.
