Wasteland Music. . .
Anyone who’s been following me on Twitter and Facebook for a while has seen me rave about this band. I’d heard them before, but about a month or so ago, I heard Awake and Alive and FELL IN LOVE.
Even though I didn’t write Wasteland while listening to this song, when I heard it, I decided it represented the book pretty well!

There are a couple verses that really stick out:
When my faith is getting weak
And I feel like giving in
You breathe into me again
The girl signing that part ROCKS. On the official video, she’s pounding the drums like a maniac while belting out this verse like no other! Amazing.
Another verse I love:
I’m at war with the world cause I
Ain’t never gonna sell my soul
If you followed the blog last week, you learned a bit more about David while he hosted for a few days. His demon half works to overcome his human half, but David refuses to give in. Understandably, he gets tired.
And a little testy…..Like here, in this interview with Kendall Gray’s character, Gavin.
David’s giving the whole interview-thing another shot, though. He’s getting interviewed on Ciara Knight’s blog today.Her character, Alexander, is asking a few pointed questions….Come check it out (click here.)
Happy Tuesday, everyone. Thanks for sharing my journey to publication with me.

Ain’t it amazing how some songs just *fit* a story? 🙂

Current…favorite…band.
I LOVE Skillet. This is my favorite song from this album too — aside from Monster.
Lynn Rush
Monster is AWESOME, too. That one is second to this song here. Oh man. Skillet was just in town Sunday night…I couldn’t go, though. 🙁

Lynn Rush
Glad you liked it!! 🙂
Kendall Grey
I’ve heard of Skillet but never listened to them. If they have a chick drummer, that’s all I need to know. They’re awesome by default. Hahahaha!
Lynn Rush
She’s wicked awesome, Kendall! Great voice. Very talented. 🙂
