A Glimpse Inside My Novel

I can’t speak for other authors as to whether they listen to music when they write. I do. And for my fantasy writing I often listen to Evanesence. Here are a couple of videos that give you a sense of the darkness of my first book. (And for the record, I’ve only just seen these videos for the first time today and realized how well they seem to capture parts of the story. It was the anguish in the music that really helped me to bring out the dark elements in the novel.)

Call Me When You’re Sober

Good Enough

Sweet Sacrifice

I wish there was a video for Lacrymosa which I think is the best track on the album.

As a side note, if you are interested in reading the first chapter, I’ve posted it here. It’s dark fantasy and if you’re a devout Muslim/Christian/Jew you will likely be offended.
