My Gen X Playlist: A Short Pause

I decided to take a pause from writing. It seemed like the right time. Since I completed the daily prompts, I haven’t felt the pressure to write every day. So the pause really didn’t free up a monumental amount of time. It just felt the timing was right. What I realized was writing is a … Continue reading My Gen X Playlist: A Short Pause

My Gen X Playlist: Wonderwall – Oasis

I have to admit, I enjoyed the WordPress daily prompts. Sure, sometime the questions were questionable at best, but it still provided an avenue to write everyday. WordPress limited their daily prompts to a year and I blew past that a while ago. A kind reader suggested the daily prompts from coffeemonsterzco. I think I … Continue reading My Gen X Playlist: Wonderwall – Oasis

My Gen X Playlist: What’s the Frequency, Kenneth? – REM

During my time off, I tried a number of new endeavors that I never had the time nor the energy to check out. I picked up a guitar and gave that a shot. Fortunately, Linger by the Cranberries consists of only a few simple chords and my attempt, while not great, made me feel good. … Continue reading My Gen X Playlist: What’s the Frequency, Kenneth? – REM

My ultimate goal is to reach 365 consecutive days which has been challenging. Some days the words don’t flow or I struggle finding a corresponding song. Sometimes … Continue reading My Gen X Playlist: Morning Has Broken – Cat Stevens

My Gen X Playlist: Unwritten – Natasha Bedingfield

I’m still pretty new to writing. I started this blog about a month and a half ago as a way to explore my creative side while on sabbatical. I remember staring at a blank page not knowing what to write. I never knew that a silent blinking prompt could become so deafening. Discovering the daily … Continue reading My Gen X Playlist: Unwritten – Natasha Bedingfield

My Gen X Playlist: Changes – David Bowie

Numbers. Everyday numbers. I’ve spent over 25 years knee deep in them. Cost analysis, financial projections, charts and graphs. Funny, because my favorite subject in high school was never math, my interest tended to gravitate towards english and writing. In college, I studied business, it seemed to stick and the rest is history. But I’ve … Continue reading My Gen X Playlist: Changes – David Bowie
