On… new writing and new music

Two cool new TV projects dropped in my lap in January, gang.

So obviouslah, I needed some new music to listen to while I’m playing make believe in my head. Writing, for me, starts with daydreaming. And then, if an idea comes, scribbling it – whatever it is; characters, plot ideas, dialogue – down as fast as I can, on paper, on my iPhone, on my hands, inside of book jackets in the middle of the night when I’m too asleep to get some actual paper but too scared of losing the idea, anywhere. Yes, it’s incredibly annoying for the people around me. Where was I? Yes. New music. (Or new old music.)

This is what I’m listening to:

Nana Adjoa – Late Bloomer

 

Gizzle – Get Loud For Me

 

The Beatles – It Won’t Be Long

 

Gin Wigmore – Kill Of The Night

 

Dum Dum Girls – Coming Down

 

Electric Six – I Buy The Drugs

 

The Cure – Close To Me

 

Gary Clark Jr – Come Together

 

The Romantics – What I Like About You

 

Iggy Pop – Candy

 

Harry Nilsson – One

    Dylan does a stellar job (as it’s his song) playing “It’s All Over Now Baby Blue”. If you like the song, check out Van Morrison’s version.

    Hey Gemma, do you have any new books coming out soon? I just adored ‘The Dating Detox’ and ‘A Girl Like You’, so relatable. I would love to read more from you. Or see these books on the big screen!
