June of Doom & Gloom - Week 2 discussion and etc. post

[huinare]

Welcome to the second week of this thing!

How is everyone doing? Discussion, writers' angst, other stuff? Put it in this thread!

Also, discussion topic: Do you have music you're using or plan to use as inspiration for your stories or mood music during your writing process? This question extends to anyone, whether you are participating in the challenge or no: What are some songs, or types of music, that get you in the right mood for writing sorrowful or doomful fiction (or making art of the same nature)? Links or lyrics welcome!

I'm sure you'll think of something; still ~20 days left! It seems many people are currently immersed in ISFAB week.

Strangely, pop makes it easier for me to write sorrowful and doomful fiction. I think it's because if I listen to sad stuff, it puts me into a real life funk, and then I don't write.

I can see where that could happen. Whatever works!

I'm trying to, at least! :D It will probably end up Fingon or Maglor centered, since doom and gloom is like a default setting for me with them...
