If you don’t know me by now…
“When you’re happy you enjoy the music.
When you’re sad, you understand the lyrics.”
-Frank Ocean
Every one of my books has a playlist, and all of my chapter names are song titles. I include these playlists and a link to them at the back of every book.
Music has always been a huge part of my life, and it sets the mood for my writing. Whether it’s the overall energy of a song, a lyric, or even just the title, that tone carries through into my written words on the page.
If you’re so inclined, try listening to the chapter’s song before or during reading.
It might just change your reading experience!
Oh, yeah - you may notice that my musical taste is a bit…eclectic. It does run from video game scores to new wave, to metal, and everything in between.
