Write a Poem, Win a Book!

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

An interesting contest going on at Moira Roger’s blog.

Every month we take all of our website search keywords from the previous month and post them, challenging our readers to create magnetic poetry style poems for us. It was so much fun the first time around it’s become a tradition.

Starting in May, we invited an author to be our guest judge. The author donates a copy of one of their books to the winner, and we pitch in a gift certificate, both for the winner and the runner up.

Music and Writing by Leila Brown

Monday, June 9th, 2008

A few of my fellow CP authors and I are having a blog tour for the next two weeks. Today’s post is by my writing partner Leila Brown. Be sure to stop by daily for new posts.

I am one of those writers who has to have music playing in order to write. The music helps put me in the mood. I can see how this music could be a soundtrack to the movie going on in my head.

Here is the soundtrack I composed for A Chance Encounter. It is totally made of new songs. No old school songs here. Check it out. Even the titles create a picture in your mind.

A Chance Encounter Playlist

1.) Over You – Daughtry
2.) Fergalicious – Fergie
3.) No Air – Jordin Sparks
4.) When I See U – Fantasia
5.) Tattoo – Jordin Sparks
6.) Outta My System – Bow Wow
7.) Bye Bye – Mariah Carey
8.) Because of You – Ne-Yo

I still love to listen to this one. I also have playlist for Vampire Oracle: Sacrifice, The Diamond Heartstone, and Soundwave’s Surrender.
