30 Days of Music: A Writing Challenge
Rules: For each day, post a piece of writing (short story, poem, etc.) based on a song. In essence, write a story around the feelings/ memories the song evokes, based on the songs concept, or around a line of lyric (if applicable) that really resonates within. For every post, link a YouTube video of the song before the writing. One may either base their writing on a song of their own choosing, or go by the list (though I would recommend listening to the song for that day before dismissing it) given here:
Day 1: Lemolo - We Felt the Fall
Day 3: Lana Del Rey - Summertime Sadness
Day 5: La Dispute - A Broken Jar
Day 6: Mad Season - Long Gone Day
Day 7: Marcy Playground - Opium
Day 8: Wren - Artificial Flavors
Day 9: Cage the Elephant - Shake Me Down
Day 10: Beck - Paper Tiger
Day 11: Tame Impala - Mind Mischief
