Title: Odd inspiration?
Post by: Rose on February 13, 2008, 02:16:06 AM
I have this chapter for my sci-fi, Divisions of Reality, where I know exactly what has to happen, have known. But I'd been stuck on writing it cause I couldn't get in the vibe/tone of the chapter. Then, I downloaded "Smack That" by Akon and Eminem and it inspired me and got me in the zone for the chapter which is a futuristic dream psychosis state.

"Smack That" of all songs lmao...ever been inspired by something good but happens to be extremely random in comparison to just what it inspired?

lmao I know that song by heart too.

I think it might just be the beat of "Smack That" I dunno but I went from 1 page of the chapter to 5 and almost finished thanks to it. Randomness at it's best

My two year old cousin sings Smack That. Her older brothers taught her, and she giggles and sings it louder when we tell her not to because "it's a dirty song! don't sing that!" 'Course, she jumbles a lot of the words, but still. Kinda cute, if a little inappropriate lol

MaggieW...so did not realize you read DOR lol. That thing has been going so long, I knew most of the forum didn't do sci-fi...but yay! Glad you liked it. That fic is my biggest joy and biggest trouble man. I love it cause its one of my most creative sci-fis, but I can get stuck on it easy.

Smack That is such a club song lol....I blame the inspiration on the beat, that has to be it haha.

Well, you ladies kept leaving us with cliffhangers, which is one of my favorite elements in a story, btw, so of course I have to keep reading!

LOL I look at the beginning of that fic (which is so still my sci-fi baby) and it just reminds me of how old I was when I started it. I was 16! But yay for devoted readers! I started on the next chapter during my History 102 class lol.
