This is easily one of my FAVORITE questions I’ve This is easily one of my FAVORITE questions I’ve been asked when submitting a query: Do you have a playlist for this book?Why yes, yes I do… in fact, I have one for each of my works-in-progress. They’re essential to my writing process! Writers, do you make playlists for your books or writing time?

How have your other interests informed your own wr How have your other interests informed your own writing and creative pursuits? One of the reasons I think I’ve always loved writing is that it allows me to immerse myself in other worlds and characters. As a kid, I also loved to perform… despite the fact that I’m an introvert most days. After performing with a local theater company for a few years, I decided I wanted to try my hand at putting on my own theatrical productions. Some of my more “notable” attempts:1. In 5th grade, my friends and I got together and decided to stage a League of their Own, enlisting my younger sister and her friends as the background players (aka the rest of the team other than Dottie and Kit). This wasn’t my only foray into “scriptwriting” (aka adaptions) and production.2. In high school, a friend and I worked on staging a version of our favorite movie, Labyrinth, which was halted, as you may guess, by the fact that it was copyrighted and we couldn’t get permission to publicly perform it. But still, both were fun experiences, and it taught me a whole lot about the coordination involved in staging plays!#LizsWritingJourney #ChildhoodDream #PlayProduction #Theater #ChildhoodMovies #90sKids #PlayAdaptions
