While I don’t enjoy listening to music as I’m actually writing, I often find that I need music to set scenes or get into a character’s head. Because of this, I’ve come to associate different songs with different characters and events in Wizzy Wig.
Since Wizzy Wig is due to come out soon, I thought I’d put together the soundtrack that I’ve been listening to in my head for the last two years. Now you can have it all in your head too.
I especially recommend the last song.
I recommend playing it twelve or thirteen times in a row. By the third time, you’re pretty much invincible.
