A MULTI-MEDIA ADVENTURE ACROSS WORDS AND SOUND
Why a soundtrack for the novel? It’s a good question, and one I’m not yet sure I can fully answer. Some songs were composed just before I began the novel in earnest. After finishing the first draft, I returned to the music and was surprised to see just how my brain had been preparing me for this journey. Some of the lyrics fed right into the story.
All in all, the music saved this project, for whenever I felt lost in the writing of the novel (or simply overwhelmed), I turned to the soundtrack. Inversely, when I felt lost in the music, I returned to the novel. They are strange bedfellows, but one could simply not exist without the other.
