Whiskey and Music
I’ve spent a lot of time working on books recently. I’m doing two more and I think I might call it quits after that but we’ll see. I did two already, and I’m not sure how much more I have in me. But I do like to work on them when I’ve been drinking whiskey. I dunno why that is. I usually put on some jazz, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, and I’ve been playing BB King quite a bit these days too. BB King obviously isn’t jazz, but he’s probably my favorite musician, and I think a little booze and the right music will give you the right mood for a book. I’m not talking about being so drunk you can’t see straight, but a couple of shots just seem to do the trick. I’ve been drinking several different kinds Jack Daniels, Leadslingers, Jameson, and Johnnie Walker. I know we all have different backgrounds, different things we want to do in life, but I think the right drink and the right music will give your whatever it is you’re working on...
