haunted thoughts.

in trying to develop and finesse the next book things get stuck.

PS was heavily influenced by an 80s britpop beat.

it was the time and feeling that the story needed. the aesthetic that seemed to fit the narrative.

but, something different haunts this next project.

gathered tunes that are more current, indy.

a few lyrics catch in my head and play on a loop.

don't leave yourself alone for too many days, sooner than you know you're gonna start slipping...the National- Slipping Husband.

a certain loneliness to it.

then the mind attaches to the new working title.

songs you'll never hear.

thoughts rush around, memories and the way we attach lyrics here and there. how a song can remind you of a time and how sometimes songs stay longer than a person... and open up into a new world of songs that you don't share and life is experienced without the lyric having that subtle meaning between two people.

I think that is the cornerstone of what the next one is going to do.

seems solid enough.

just need to toss it to the characters and see if they want to dance to it.
