Recently I shared with all of you about the head injury I sustained back on February 9, 2018. Because of this- a new book idea was formed and has grown into my newest work-work-in-progress, Tattered Hearts.
I decided that if I was going to experience a concussion, and the process of healing from one, then I would share it by telling a story. So now, my heroine, Allie Mills, is going to go through the same issues I
did. And since I write about love stories, of course that's
going to be a huge theme in the book as well. (After all- I like to write about subjects that I know, sometimes that comes in the form of first hand knowledge... and yes, parts of my life do show up in my books.)
Once I decided on this path for my main characters, I came across a country song by LANCO titled, Greatest Love Story. Have you heard of it? If not, I highly recommend you take a listen to it- and pay attention to the words. I'm now in love with that song, and it's the other driving force behind the story for Allie & Jake, the two main characters of Tattered Hearts. I'm sure you can guess at why I wrote the title now, but to really know you'll just have to read the book when it comes out. ;)
Now, I'm sure many of you know or guess, music can be a great inspiration for authors as they go through the writing process. It helps to get those creative juices flowing even more, and helps add to their stories. So when I started writing this novel, random songs would come on the radio that I felt would help tell Allie and Jake's story. Which helped me to come up with this small playlist. Well, for now, at least. I hope you enjoy these songs just as much as I do.
LANCO- Greatest Love Story
Eric Church- Round Here
Taylor Swift- Last Kiss
Taylor Swift- Our Song
Dylan Scott- My Girl

I'm really looking forward to seeing how it all comes about!!
A special bonus- the link🔻 to this awesome song that inspired me further.
