After a break of two months, I returned to Spotify for Podcasters today, where I talked for a brief 5 minutes or so about my new project, a children's book titled: "The Monster of Disco, as mentioned in my two previous posts The M of D and The M of D - Pole Dancing vs Break Dancing.
Today I felt pretty ( and ) inspired.
I had fun sitting outside, at a pick-nick table near an unused church, in the pre-rain breeze, slowly sipping hot coffee from my new awesome 1.2 liter thermos flask ( brought to you by... my twin sister, who gifted it to me, two days ago ) and penning down my thoughts as well as having fun coloring and drawing disco monsters.
Then, just before leaving that inspiring little spot, I recorded the aforementioned podcast episode, where I talk about this fun new colorful project of mine and possible upcoming changes, like setting up a Patreon page for further support on my creative journey.
If you want to listen to this brief talk of mine ( or earlier episodes ), here's a link:
Oh and if you're wondering about the title of this write up, Parasite at the Disco Light popped up in my head as a nice little wordplay based on the earworm of a song by Meat Loaf, that most people have likely heard of.
I was thinking of how The Monster of Disco, while pole dancing, got in a serious flow and how its energy attracted all kinds of other, low energy, monsters, who felt like parasitising on the monster of disco's energy.
I then pictures a li'l monster on the disco ball. I am sure I will draw that fellow one of these days.
TO BE (DIS)CO-NVINUED...
A storm is a-brewing... I am looking forward to some much needed rain.
Listening to it even as I type. Left a reply too. I think your project is amazing and I don't know exactly what inspired you but it's lovely. Disco dancing is just the right subject to set children in a cheery mood. Cheers✨
I really appreciated your message on Spotify. Thanks for notifying me, as I wouldn't have found it otherwise.
Inspiration is a funny beast indeed ;<)
You got it! ;<)
💚
I just listened to your podcast, and it was good to hear your voice again and that you'll be continuing to share in that medium. Words are interesting, and I love the litany of lyrical, literary, liberation that you share with your readers.
"aforementioned" is a word that sticks in the head, as it is very useful, but not often used. A word not used in this post is "whilst" which immediately identifies one as a foreigner to Americans (I hear it from Brits a lot) as it is rarely used here anymore. Keep up with the wordplay, and let your inner Raptor roam! :)
First of all, thanks for listening to my podcast, buddy!
Nice alliteration ( if that's the same word in English )
Aforementioned sure is a nice word. I wouldn't think of using whilst, too cobwebby, although I might use 'while', once in a while ;<)
Cheers! My inner raptor is battling it out with disco monsters these days,
I will see what I can do...
