When I was first writing Cross Stitching back in November 2020 (and subsequently drafting it in the coming months afterwards), I listened to a lot of specific music. Music is such a huge motivator and inspiration bank for me when it comes to writing; certain tracks by particular artists can help me to convey the exact emotions that I’m after and lets my imagination run wild.
Although I’m not a regular user of Spotify, I thought it would be a fun little idea to create a Spotify playlist with the music that was a big factor in why Cross Stitching took on the form that it did. So here it is – allow me to introduce The Cross Stitching Spotify Playlist!
There are 16 songs on this playlist in total, but each of them hold a lot of significance to the story that I’ve built. In amongst this playlist, there are three tracks that I personally feel convey Cross Stitching the best and I plan to do another post diving into those tracks. But for now, if you’re excited for my new novel out next month I would love it if you gave this playlist a listen.
