    SOUNDTRACK: Dance With Me by Alphaville

    December 11, 2020 / 1 Comment

    Soundtrack to Joker’s Sin: My Whole World by Davidson King

    Check out the ballad version:

    I’ve talked about why I chose a certain song for a book in my monthly wrap-up. I realized I should do it here or else people won’t know what I’m talking about.

    For My Whole World (and the Joker’s Sin series as a whole), I wanted a song that had something to do with clubs or dancing. Dance With Me is from the 80s, a decade known for it’s hedonistic club scenes. It describes the experience in that very danceable new wave style. I could see this song being played in the Joker’s Sin‘s 80s night theme. The ballad version had a melancholy vibe that matched the lyrics that talks about losing oneself in a dance. This is Atlas and Toby caught in that moment when they were dancing on stage.

    When the heat of light melts into the speeding time
    When the king returns to the ivory cityside
    Let the Magnet Mages wave the signals
    Flashing oh so fast
    Then you’ll meet me there under the moonshine
    In a lover’s heaven, we’ll keep our promises at last
    In a lover’s heaven we’ll forget the past
    Do you want to dance with me
    Through one of those lonely nights
    It’s more than a dream
    Maybe we’re reaching the gardens of delight
    Do you want to dance with me
    Through one of those lonely nights
    It’s more than a dream
    Maybe we’re drowning in empires of delight

    In the stardust dawn underneath the crystal roofs
    Where the solar boys are playing games
    They never lose
    Where the sailors are swaying
    Through the lightdomes shining in the sky
    There you’ll meet me, darling, anyway
    In a lover’s heaven, we’ll keep our promises at last
    In a lover’s heaven we’ll forget the past

    FIRST LINES FRIDAY 56: Out

    December 10, 2020 / No Comments

    First Line Fridays” is by Hoarding Books and is all about the first line of a current/upcoming read. Friday 56 is a meme hosted by Freda’s Voice, where you turn to page 56 (or 56%) in what you’re reading a find a snippet that jumps out at you. The idea to combine the two came from Kat @ Here There Be Dragons“

    I found this meme on The Writerly Way. And I’m doing this on a Thursday just to be difficult.
