A (fun) Challenge

My friend Beth (AKA Chi) tweeted a link to a fellow blogger who is participating in one of those 30 day Facebook meme things. I'll be the first to admit, I have no idea what a meme is, but I like it. Anyway, Chi thought it would be a fun little challenge for our group to take part in, and I agree! I encourage you guys to join in as well and leave a comment!

Like so many others, music is an enormous part of my writing process--my life in general! If I'm awake, and sometimes asleep, there's music going somewhere in my house. Songs reach me on such a deep and personal level. It's more than a good beat--not that good beats aren't nice too ;) A good song is an entire novel summed up into 3 minutes worth of vocals. Songwriters are geniuses, in my opinion!

It goes like this: For 30 days, you post a song on your blog that relates to that day's requirements. I'm going to tweak it a bit and personalize this challenge for me. For each song I list, where possible, I'm going to tie that to my writing. See the guidelines below.



So here we go:

day 01 - your favorite song
day 02 - your least favorite song
day 03 - a song that makes you happy
day 04 - a song that makes you sad
day 05 - a song that reminds you of someone
day 06 - a song that reminds you of somewhere
day 07 - a song that reminds you of a certain event
day 08 - a song that you know all the words to
day 09 - a song that you can dance to
day 10 - a song that makes you fall asleep
day 11 - a song from your favorite band
day 12 - a song from a band you hate
day 13 - a song that is a guilty pleasure
day 14 - a song that no one would expect you to love
day 15 - a song that describes you
day 16 - a song that you used to love but now hate
day 17 - a song that you hear often on the radio
day 18 - a song that you wish you heard on the radio
day 19 - a song from your favorite album
day 20 - a song that you listen to when you’re angry
day 21 - a song that you listen to when you’re happy
day 22 - a song that you listen to when you’re sad
day 23 - a song that you want to play at your wedding
day 24 - a song that you want to play at your funeral
day 25 - a song that makes you laugh
day 26 - a song that you can play on an instrument
day 27 - a song that you wish you could play
day 28 - a song that makes you feel guilty
day 29 - a song from your childhood
day 30 - your favorite song at this time last year
