Hell Without You Playlist - Listen to the Songs I Wrote To
I like to listen to music when I write -- not constantly, but sometimes. Some of my stories are more emotionally driven than others, and those are the ones I tend to write with my headphones on.
Hell Without You is one of those books. Now that release day is a week away, I thought sharing my writing playlist would be a fun way to introduce Clementine, Donovan and their story, albeit indirectly.
Up until recently, my headphones were my office. I've moved and those days are over (*cue Hallelujah Chorus*), but music can still be an important part of my creative process, especially when I'm developing a story / plot. Playing the right songs can be like tapping directly into a vein of emotions that amplify my story ideas and bring them to life faster. That being said, this playlist is one I turned to throughout the entire process, from drafting to editing.
World's smallest office. LOL
