≡ Make Believe Soundtracks

A few people have asked what kind of music I listen to when I write. Typically, I end up creating playlists for whatever stories I’m working on. They’re like little story soundtracks I play over and over again as I’m writing and rewriting. I put these two together while working on the story and the podcast. They’re pretty different in tone - The Superspiff and the Toothpick Kid playlist is full of fun songs that I relate to superheroics for one reason or another whereas the Cyberpunk playlist is a lot moodier and a lot angrier.
