Day 5 – Name two songs from your playlist that you feel are connected with your novel in some way, and explain how they are.
“The Voices” by Josh Woodward. I’m friends with this artist, and his songs have served as theme songs for my characters from the last two projects that I actually finished, so I asked him if he had any “space-y songs." This song that he recommended actually fits Gus’s inner turmoil pretty well, so it’s her theme song now.
"Angels” by Owl City. I know, it’s a little weird to connect an Adam Young song to a smut project, but this is so much more a character’s sexual journey than smut for smut’s sake, so it encompasses the wonder about the universe that characterizes Gus.
