Jazz

My mind travels to

uncharted places from a

saxophone solo.

Listening to good music on a relaxing day has done wonders for my imagination. My musical genre of choice is jazz because there’s something so beautiful yet powerful the way the melodies can change a person’s mood. They’ve also impacted my thoughts leading to some ideas about my creative process when I step away from writing. When I return to sit down and start crafting new ideas or revisiting old ones, I feel rejuvenated and ready to explore where the flow will take me.

Today I will take a moment to spend time listening to some jazz and allow my mind to be receptive to any ideas that will help my creative process.
