Katie Wright Photography: Music in Substitution of Angry Rant

"This song really cures the will to live"

-Fave quote from Definitely, Maybe

I have, throughout the past several days, been trying to write a response to Love's Apology in F major, Waltz Time. It would be an understatement for me to say that I've been pretty pissed off at the prospect of having to apologize for the things said in photographs and writing-and it seems as though over the past month or so, we have been urged to do just that.

Heres the thing:

And I believe I can speak on behalf of Love as well when I say that there isn't anything written or depicted here that is personally incriminating or that hasn't been spoken of prior to the individual in question. FURTHERMORE, (I speak for myself alone, although I'm sure Love would agree) I feel as though I've been a bit more gentle than I have needed to be.

So this in a nutshell is the blog I have been interrupted from in the past few days. In short: I'm not sorry for anything I have said in my photos or words. I pick them carefully for a reason.

BUT that isn't the blog I want to write today.

Instead I want to respond to Love's music blog.

She listed some music she listens to when she writes, and I'm going to list the music I put on when editing photos. Thematically, most of mine are similar sad songs, because it is difficult to produce anything wonderful when you are happy. It is a cruel truth.

Which is probably why I haven't made anything good lately...
