Inspiration Spot of the Night: Matters of the Heart

There is a visual/kinetic novel that I am writing in parallel to RainFall called Matters of the Heart. It deals with my lizard/reptile people, who live in a land called Dusk. I got into some Howl’s Moving Castle music (the inspiration, in part, for the storyworld) and have been writing. Thought I’d record here some of my influences…

The song that’s gotten me writing: Jinsei no Merry Go Round (The Merry Go Round of Life).

My inspiration for the male lead, Max, has evolved into this man: Ranveer Singh. You’ll probably recognize him as the Bollywood actor I’m more or less in love with at the moment, who replaced Ranbir Kapoor.

 

I just love Ranveer’s looks and his dark hair. His confident air in both Band Bajaa Barat and Ladies vs Ricky Bahl solidified him as an Max for me.The reptiles are a desert people, so it makes sense for them to be darker skinned than the Passerines.

That’s about all I’ll reveal for now. Back to writing!
