It's been a long and winding road, and I've still got a long way to go before I'm satisfied with it. Although this is my second draft, it won't be my last.
Now, I have a much better grasp of my characters. I recently discovered 8tracks and made playlists for each major character in the novel. I switch the playlists depending on which scene I'm writing. The music helps put me in a writing mood and captures (more or less) the essence of each character.
If you'd like to listen to what I've put together, feel free to check out the widgets below.
Make sure you're following me on 8tracks if you want to hear new playlists! I'll follow you back ASAP. :)
What do you think of these character playlists? How do you feel about making different playlists for each of your characters?

Do you make playlists for your characters? @brianawrites shares some of hers for MUD EYES. (Click to tweet)
Ah yes, a great idea. I have songs I associate with my characters and the scenes, I definitely think it helps add depth and improve the writing process.
