I heard a story once about Joseph Haydn. He always dressed in his best clothes before he sat down to compose music, because as he said, he is going before his Maker. Many of the great composers were deeply religious, especially Bach and Brahams. A cool youtube video that I've been watching every other day to get me hyped up to write is this one:
I just finished reading two bestselling novels this week, and I am so sick of foul language, graphic sex and violence being spewed at me. I want my writing to be virtuous, lovely, praiseworthy and lucrative. (Mwahaha love of money love of money....) Anyway, one reason I like the Twilight novels is because they are clean AND successful. Stephen King would totally make fun of me. But really, do I have to write about losers with foul mouths and morals to be taken seriously??
