I am undoubtedly a musical gal. My brain works best with some sort of noise in the background (or blaring in the forefront, as it were 🤭).
It's gotten to the point where if I hear a certain song or ambience, my brain will immediately switch to that story world mode—whether I'm working on it in the moment or not!
While I love finding songs that fit certain characters, ambiences are my go-to as of late. And really, when you start looking for them, you can find playlists put together for just about every genre under the sun and then some. 😅
So, to make your life a little easier, here are some of my favorites for multiple genres. 😊
Fantasy
sci-fi
Mystery
Tragedy
Epic / Adventure
Medieval
Fairytale Retelling
Dark Academia
Cottagecore
Spy/Suspense
There y'are, folks! I hope this helps stir some of your creative juices and gets those words flowing. 😊
Have you listened to any of these playlists? What is your favorite go-to: lyrical or ambience? And who else can hear a song/playlist/ambience and go “Hey, that’s [INSERT WIP HERE]”? 😂
Catch ya on the flip side!
_Mac 🤎
