Do you ever wonder if an author was listening to music when he or she was writing? If a book became a movie, do you think about what might be on the soundtrack? I do. For me, music is an integral part of writing. Certain songs just fit the mood perfectly, or maybe the lyrics hit close to home for some characters. Today I’ve decided to share a playlist of songs that influenced the writing process for Cadillac Payback.
- Long Snake Moan – PJ Harvey
- Dirtywhirl – TV on the Radio
- Come With Me Now – Kongos
- Fortunate Son – Creedance Clearwater Revival
