Writing Playlists

Something fun I thought I would do for all of you. I absolutely cannot write without music playing. To me, writing has been a very visual process. It’s almost like a movie playing in my head, with a soundtrack to accompany it. So when I first realized this was something, I went through my music and created a playlist that I listen to every time I sit down to write. Each song means something different at a particular time something is being written.
