Dianna’s playlist often intertwines with Roland’s so I had to go back to my previous post to make sure I didn’t accidentally repost the same songs. I think I’ve managed to avoid that…and so, here are a handful of songs off Dianna’s playlist!
Never Mine is a song written and performed by my friend Mary-Kate Edwards. It’s one of my favourites of hers and I absolutely adore listening to it, along with the rest of her album when I’m writing.
I’m so excited about the scenes I’ve written to these songs in book two! Especially in the cases where the songs overlap between Roland and Dianna.
I also can’t wait to introduce the handful of new characters to you all…hehe!
I’ve finished another round of edits, which is fantastic, however every time I do, I have no idea what I should do with myself. Since my area is back in lock down, I have a lot of free time again.
Prior to this current lock down, I had been reading to keep busy between each of my edits. I find reading and engaging with different texts helps me stay on task. I suppose it’s like studying. I like to see how others go about building their scenes, creating atmosphere, how they break up their chapters…etc.
With all this free time again, I’ll probably jump back into writing since I don’t have anything to edit right now. Thankfully, I can record. I’ve been working on some music and animation projects that I’m very excited about.
I hope to share these projects with you all over the next few months. I hope you’ll enjoy them as much as I enjoyed working on them.

I’ve been listening to this track recently, and added it to one of my character playlists.
Today’s task is to create a chill vibes playlist inspired by the characters in my novel. I’ve decided to pick 1 song per my main cast of characters. I’ll also do little introductory posts for each of them as well. I hope I pick songs that they’d enjoy haha!
Song #1: Dance With Me
This first song is for Dianna. I can picture her dancing and singing to it secretly when no one else is around haha.
Song #2: Falling in Love at a Coffee Shop
This song is really sweet. I have it on a playlist for either Lawrence or Wendy. It reminds me of how they met. Backstory stuff…but it really captures them well.
Song# 3: 4/4
This song makes me think of Roland. It just seems like something he’d start singing to himself while brushing his teeth or something.
Song #4: My Best Friend
This song reminds me of Nicholas. I already have it on one or two of his playlists.
Song#5: I Love My Boyfriend
This song is for Rose haha. If you watched my drawing reel on Instagram, you’ll hear another song by Princess Chelsea from the picture of Rose with her brother’s picking pumpkin.
Song# 6: Try to Change
This song is for Darius. He’s surprisingly got a lot of really chill songs on his playlist. I was shocked. I expected more chill vibes from some of my other character’s.
Song #7: Telling Lies
This songs on Kurtis’ playlist. It’s not exactly chill…but it’s not exactly not chill? I think this is the most chill Kurtis is gonna get haha.
I’ve been struggling to find a good song for Peter. His playlist has no chill. All party songs. If you’re having a party in the future, hit him up.
Song #8: Beautiful People Beautiful Problems
This song is on Eloise’s playlist.
I’m starting to realize that a lot of my character’s have no chill. They need to get whelmed and feel the aster (if you get that reference, you’re now one of my favourite people!).
What song’s do you like to listen to when you’re just hanging out?
