It's embarrassing really how little I know about any current music. But we can't be ALL the things. So I have employed the mad musical skills of Mandie Baxter (love her!!!) to come up with a playlist for TRAINWRECK. And she did and it's AWESOME. So even though I may not be all the things, at least I know some good people:)
I'm gonna roll out this playlist a little at a time over the next few weeks. This week features music from before the broken part of the story. I hope you all love both these songs as much as I do.

You sound just like me! Writing with music is distracting and it isn't that I don't love music, but I am just horrible at deciding what to spend my money on so I just don't. But hey, when you have a totally cool friend to help pick some jams out it's a win win.
Great songs!
I remember one day, back when I was teaching, I couldn't stop calling albums "records". It delighted my students because it provided them with a perfect reason to make fun of me.
Occasionally a friend of mine will say "Hey, I heard this song and it made me think of your book!" And I love it when that happens.
tnx4 the playlist
i love listening to songs whyle reading
exited for trainwreck
I have playlists for about half my books.
I use them when I'm editing, or when I'm running and am thinking through plot while I go.
What's cool is that a song I haven't heard in a while came up last night on the iPod while Mike and I were out driving and it took me RIGHT back to that project.
It's really nice when I'm working on more than one thing at a time because it helps get me in the "mood" :-D
I can't understand a character unless I know what music they listen to. But I'm married to a musician. And when I listen to the radio I categorize the songs by what character would like them. During the first video I kinda couldn't take my eyes off the girl.
I love music and will take a listen!
Ahh I sort of love you for having Bowling for Soup as one of your playlist songs for Trainwreck! Speaking of which, congrats on your debut novel - I bet you're excited for next year. :) I found you at Elana Johnson's blog. She is awesome. And you have awesome taste in music, I have to say.
By the way, I'm hosting an awesome blogfest and critique giveaway at my blog from June 22-24 that you should totally come participate in if you're interested! :) Hope you have a great day.

I know these songs!
I listen to music when I write. Puts me in the right mood since I pick the songs for the feel in the scenes I'm going for.
Aw! <3 Love ya back! It was my pleasure to come up with these songs. I hope everyone else likes them, too! :D
As far as writing, I can't stand quiet. Music helps me think. Also...I need music to live! (former band geek here)
Your style is very unique compared to other people I’ve read stuff from. Thanks for posting when you have the opportunity, Guess I will just bookmark this page
