Today i’m pleased to welcome back the lovely Susan MacNicol! She’s talking about the playlist for her latest release, and has brought an excerpt and giveaway. Thanks for visiting, Susan!
Playlist for Sight and Sinners
One of the things I really enjoy doing is creating my own play lists on Soundcloud. Each book I write inspires me to take a look at the different music out there on offer and find something new and fresh.
Of course, I have my old favourites, and you can see these in most of my playlists. The new Sight and Sinners playlist features some of my favourite music, and is a rather eclectic mix of old, new, classical and indie techno.
One of the composers I love is Julien Boulier, an artiste living in Brest, France. Julien was kind enough to let me use some of his music in my book trailers. He’s really talented and I love listening to the new pieces of music he showcases. You can find quite a bit of it in the Sights and Sinners playlist.
This is Julien’s profile if you want to check it out.

It’s something special listening to music as you write and something I do often. I do find that classical music is very inspiring and seems to spur me on when it comes to being creative. I’m not sure how many of you find this to be true?
There’s a really interesting article here by Steve Silberman that tackles this subject….
Contained in this article is an interesting link to an author called John Schwartz who wrote a NY Bestselling book about life with his gay son, affectionately titled ‘Oddly Normal’. You might like to take a look at the book here.

Excerpt:
The man Taylor was blowing definitely didn’t know how the hell to keep quiet. Taylor’s lips were wrapped around his dick, while above him a man stood, panting and moaning, turning the air blue with his curses. Taylor stopped what he was doing, causing the blowjob recipient to groan in dismay, and glared at the sweaty face above him.
“For Christ’s sake, Georgie, can you stop it with the fucking porn noises?” He glanced around him nervously. “This is where I work, damn it, and if anyone hears you they’ll come outside to see what all the fuss is about.”
Georgie’s wide eyes cast a quick glance around the deserted alleyway behind ‘Music Mayhem’ where Taylor was employed, then looked down at Taylor kneeling between his legs.
“Sorry, mate, it’s just that you’re so damn good at this and it’s been a while.”

Fangirl Moments and My Two Cents
About Susan:
Susan Mac Nicol is a self confessed bookaholic, an avid watcher of videos of sexy pole dancing men, self confessed geek and nerd and in love with her Smartphone. This little treasure is called ‘the boyfriend’ by her long suffering husband, who says if it vibrated, there’d be no need for him. Susan hasn’t had the heart to tell him there’s an app for that…
She is never happier than when sitting in the confines of her living room/study/on a cold station platform scribbling down words and making two men fall in love. She is a romantic at heart and believes that everything happens (for the most part) for a reason. She likes to think of herself as a ‘half full’ kinda gal, although sometimes that philosophy is sorely tested.
Lover of walks in the forest, theatre productions, dabbling her toes in the cold North Sea and the vibrant city of London where you can experience all four seasons in a day , she is a hater of pantomime (so please don’t tar and feather her), duplicitous people, bigotry and self righteous idiots.
In an ideal world, Susan Mac Nicol would be Queen of England and banish all the bad people to the Never Never Lands of Wherever -Who Cares. As that’s never going to happen, she contents herself with writing her HEA stories and pretending, that just for a little while, good things happen to good people.
