UPDATE: I’m beginning to think I shouldn’t provide these updates anymore because every time I share good news, there’s a setback immediately after. My mom has been in the hospital since Sunday evening after an early trip to the ER and a diagnosis of pneumonia. She’s feeling better, and if everything works out we’re hoping she’ll be coming home today, April 12 aka my birthday. So, you know the drill…my return visits to blogs and replies to comments will be delayed but not forgotten.
In my last post, I shared playlists I've created for writers, so I thought I should also share the playlists I've created for the Disaster Crimes series. Today is also my birthday, so I really wanted to do a fun post. :)
Feel free to check out the Playlist page on my website for all of my playlists.

QUESTIONS: Do you make playlists for your books?
Pray you get a good birthday and your mom comes home.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteHappy birthday. Sending healing thoughts to your mom.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteHappy birthday, and I'm sorry about your mom. I hope that things will get better for her and your family very soon.
ReplyDeleteAnd that's interesting that you created playlists with songs that relate to specific scenes; I never thought of doing that before because I always just created playlists of songs to listen to while I was writing. But I like your idea and I might try it.
I love to create playlists for writing and for the actual story and scenes. The songs for scenes end up being the ones I listened to while writing in order to get in the mood.
DeleteChrys, Happy Belated birthday!! Hope you had a good day. Sorry to hear about your mom's setback! NO FAIR. Thinking of you. I already have the Fighting Chance Playlist downloaded on my Spotify and love it! I will take a listen to all of these!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I am delighted to hear that you love The Fighting Chance Playlist.
DeleteHappy belated birthday, Chrys. I hope your mother is doing well. I listened to your favorites on Spotify.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jeff! I hope you enjoyed my Favorites.
DeleteHappy belated birthday. Hope your mom is well. I adore this post as a music lover and Disaster Crime fan. Thank you for sharing it. Will continue to keep you in my thoughts.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Toi! I am thrilled to know a Disaster Crimes fan enjoys and appreciates these playlists.
