Music I've Been Listening to Lately

While the U.S. crumbles into raw fascism, I need a little something to keep the fight against oppression going. Thank the deities for Weird Al Yankovic!

You can never go wrong with Weird Al or Hamilton!

I didn't say, "No more Jedis or Weird Al!"

Can't wait for Weird Al's biopic with Daniel Radcliff!

Not Quite Star Wars...

A Handy Reminder

This video seems like a good reminder of grammar rules while I edit novels over the month.

Let's end the month with a favorite of mine from 2011!

Lorde's "Royals" gets the Weird Al treatment.

Weird Al Is Back!

Yep, my favorite parody artist dropped a new album, Mandatory Fun, a couple weeks ago! And yes, you will be tortured with his videos for the next two months. BWAHAHA! Here's the first single, "Word Crimes" to the tune of Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines."

So this little video is dedicated to all LGBT folks who can now get married (hopefully in ALL 50 states soon), and most especially to my gay truck-driving ex-brother-in-law:

Songs I've Been Listening to Lately

I posted the soundtrack to this some time ago, but I never posted the actual video (because it hadn't been made at that point). Hope you enjoy it! Weird Al always cheers me up!

Songs I Listen To A Lot Lately...

I picked this video, not just because I'm on a "Weird" Al Yankovic kick lately, but because it illustrates my writing technique: take a classic structure and twist it's little head off.

Songs I've Been Listening To A Lot Lately...

This isn't on my Indie Publish playlist, but it IS on the playlist for my forthcoming urban fantasy novel, Amish, Vamps & Thieves. It cracks me up every time I watch/listen to it! *grin*

The Saga Begins

One of the best Yankovic parodies EVAH!
