music as muse

This page is dedicated to all the songs that I’ve listened to mercilessly while writing my poetry book. Every two weeks I’ll try and spotlight a new obsession. Come grab a seat and listen with me, maybe?

It all begins with music.

Have you ever listened to a song that stopped your heart? Well look no further… “Put Your Records On” by Corinne Bailey Rae is a classic I’m sure most of you recognize. Think summer ‘09. Think ice cream weather and neighborhood double dutching and all day 80 degrees. This song in particular always brings me back to why I write. Makes me feel like there’s someone out there rooting for me to stay breathing.
