I haven’t been posting much lately because I’m under two deadlines that are getting a bit more pressing. That, and I’ve just been tired and a little overwhelmed by things in general. I saw this post that Patrice Michelle did (and before her Melissa Marr the folks at Fangs, Fur & Fey), and thought it was a cool idea.

Once upon a time I couldn’t write while I listened to music. I’d get too distracted and my productivity would slow. These days I do listen to music, although it has to be down pretty low volume-wise. I even have playlists for my books on my iPod. The music helps me get into the frame of mind I need to be in to write.

So here are six songs I’d associate with Witch Blood. I would say more, talk about specific scenes and such…but that’d push this post into major spoiler land. *g* I could list many more than 6, btw.

1. Black Light Burns — Stop a Bullet
2. The Tea Party — Temptation
3. Moby — Evening Rain
4. Jane Siberry — It Can’t Rain All the Time
5. Evanescence — My Last Breath
6. 12 Stones — Lie to Me

I posted these vids for anyone interested in hearing the songs:
