Let's Talk Wordstock!

On October 8th and 9th there is an amazing event at the Portland Convention Center. Wordstock is the largest literature and literacy festival in the Northwest.

A WANT SO WICKED songs

A WANT SO WICKED is less than a year away (which still feels like a million years away), and I'm finalizing lots of cool things. In the meantime I thought I'd share some of my AWSW inspirations. This time, it's music! So here are just a few songs that helped to inspire the vibe of the book.

Sinister Kid- The Black Keys
Barton Hollow- The Civil Wars



Closer- Kings of Leon
Killing Moon- Nouvelle Vague



Can't wait to share more about it!
