If you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been paying attention, you know Peace Fire came out yesterday. You might also know that music is really important to me. And that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s why I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t feel like I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve done this whole endeavour justice without blatantly injecting some music into it. When I write, I have soundtracks in my head (and usually on my speakers) that set the tone, and my first mental images of Peace Fire were more like music videos. I think music helped me build a sense of atmosphere, an idea of cool outside of what Hollywood tells me it is. Music, my own and others\u00e2\u20ac\u2122, also helped me accept that a non-stop, butterfly-filled utopia isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t actually the kind of place from which creations that connect with me tend to come. Not unless someone has at least been letting some moths in&#8230; I wrote about music and how I write, specifically talking about the role of music in Peace Fire, in a guest post for someone else\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s blog, so keep your eyes on my social media. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll post the link and you can read that post if this topic interests you.
