"Dancing With Monsters" Playlist
Since publishing day is just a week away, on June 16th, I thought I'd share the playlist for Dancing With Monsters. I'm super-excited for you all to read this!
There were so many amazing songs that influenced parts of this book, but there were definitely a few that stood out as the ones that shaped how I wanted this story to unfold. It's a truly amazing thing when you have this idea in your mind about a plotline, and then you hear a song that embodies exactly what you've been thinking all along. So many times during the writing process I was walking my dog, listening to music, thinking about this story, and I'd hear a song and think, that's it! That is exactly what I've been envisioning this whole time - and now I can finish that scene! I'm not sure why music inspires me so much but seriously, a song can literally connect the dots when I'm stuck. It's equally crazy as it is awesome.
