Whilst wasting away a Saturday contemplating some of my freelance work as well as fiction I’m writing, I thought I would take a few minutes to post up the ‘soundtrack’ for Dawn of the Pale Riders*.
I listen to this playlist whenever I’m working on the book, but there is always room for more songs. If you know of any tunes that might fit nicely along with these, feel free to send me some suggestions – my ears and my iPod are hungry for more.
I’ve even added links just in case you want to hear some of the songs below. I’m awesome like that.
