I was recently asked what music I listen to while I write. I work in total silence for the first draft of a novel. I only insert a playlist when I’m revising. At that point I find it helps to add layers of mood and tone to what I’m working on. I also listen to music a lot while I drive and that’s often when plot points or characterisations come together.

So here are some of my favourite tracks off a mixture of albums that have played some part in devising or revising Blood Shadows. (Although I know it’s obvious – I must state that this is a total mock-up album and in no way are the artists linked to Blood Shadows or in any agreement to endorse it. I hope that covers me!)

PS The first track is from the trailer!
