Top 10 Songs that Inspire You
First off, thank you so much for having me, Total Bookaholic!!! I’m honored!
My taste in music is fairly eclectic and constantly changing but right now these ten songs are writing my next book.
Change of Time by Josh Ritter
This song makes me a little sad but in a good way. For some reason it reminds me of every wrong that’s ever been wronged in this world. It makes me want to move, to fix them, to stand up and shout for those who can’t.
Breath of Life by Florence + The Machine
This song has written at least three heart pounding scenes that I know of.
Blackout by Muse
This song belongs to my husband and I. It’s ours, very, very ours.
All the Rowboats by Regina Spektor
Haunting and beautiful and so Regina Spektor.
High by Feeder
This reminds me of when I lived in England. Some of the best years of my life.
Somewhere Out There by Our Lady Peace
High school dances, friends, singing at the top of our lungs, falling over each other in laughter. It was such a magical time for me, full of silliness and seriousness. There wasn’t a day that would go by that I didn’t experience both.
Mustard Gas by The Dear Hunter
This song will always scream to me in ways no other song ever could because it reminds me of the first book I ever wrote. Full of angst and demands, it’s written many passionate scenes.
Sunburn by Muse
Every time I listen to this song, for some reason I imagine an incredibly distraught woman dancing on pointe’s.
Tuna in the Brine by Silverchair
Oh my word do I love Silverchair. I am so in love with their music it’s not even funny. Their Diorama album has some incredible compositions scored by Van Dyke Parks. I’ve just never heard an album more beautiful than that one and Tuna in the Brine is my favorite.
Inception Theme by Hans Zimmer
When I need a dramatic scene, this is the song I listen to.

Add to Goodreads VAIN SUMMARY: If you’re looking for a story about a good, humble girl, who’s been hurt by someone she thought she could trust, only to find out she’s not as vulnerable as she thought she was and discovers an empowering side of herself that falls in love with the guy who helps her find that self, blah, blah, blah… then you’re gonna’ hate my story.
Because mine is not the story you read every time you bend back the cover of the latest trend novel. It’s not the “I can do anything, now that I’ve found you/I’m misunderstood but one day you’ll find me irresistible because of it” tale. Why? Because, if I was being honest with you, I’m a complete witch. There’s nothing redeeming about me. I’m a friend using, drug abusing, sex addict from Los Angeles. I’m every girlfriend’s worst nightmare and every boy’s fantasy.
I’m Sophie Price… And this is the story about how I went from the world’s most envied girl to the girl no one wanted around and why I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.
