Guns N’ Roses — November Rain. Classic rock. (Accept it, guys, it’s way old now.)
I tripped over this on the radio the other day, after probably a decade of not hearing it, and immediately remembered why it’s the only GNR song I like. Histrionic music is a big thing for certain of my characters, and between the wedding/funeral storyline in the video and the screaming guitar at the end… Well, my #1 melodrama fan was hooked. I like a lot of music specifically because my characters like it, which is a weird feeling — to suddenly be someone else while listening to something. Good thing I’m a writer and can use it.
Also, well, it’s November.
It’s been a year since Authors Answer started, and we’ve tackled some interesting questions, both self-posed and fan-submitted. Now it’s time to say thanks — to everyone who reads and responds, to everyone who observes quietly, and to everyone who just passes by! Without readers, writers are just fantastical diarists, so let me just say THANK YOU to all of you for being here.
