Whenever I write a story I like to create soundtracks that help me get into the proper mood as I create. I'll pick songs that fit a certain character or event in a story.
For Forbidden Sea, Adrianne and Denn's theme song was Teardrops on My Guitar by Taylor Swift. Even though this song is modern, I felt it showed Adrianne's feelings for her best friend Denn perfectly. Click here to listen and see if you don't agree. Don't forget to substitute the name Denn for Drew. : )
So the story I'm currently working on also has a soundtrack. The main character's theme song is Pale by Temptation Within. Listen to the song by clicking here and see what you think this song is telling you about this character.
Congratulations! You've just discovered the Mysterious Blog of Sheila A. Nielson
This is where I post hints, work-in-progress concept items, and information about stories that I'm currently working on, but are not published yet. Many of them will never see the light of publication, but then again--maybe they will.
I will not be posting any outside links to this page, so only those who know their way around Blogger will be able to find it. Now that you've found it, keep the secret and let others find it on their own.
