Hello friends!

I haven’t posted here in a while, but I wanted to share some very exciting news:

I just released a  song called “Love in War” and it comes with a short story audiobook! I wrote the short story and narrated too! I can’t wait for you to hear it.

BEHIND THE SCENES  of how I wrote the short story:

I stumbled across a competition where the assignment was to “write a short creative fiction piece about a post-apocalyptic dystopia. The story must include a heart-shaped locket”.

The story prompt got me super excited. I immediately had a few ideas, so I jotted them down in my phone notes, but then I kept having more and more ideas. I ended up writing into the wee hours of the night (morning?) because I was bursting with story ideas. As the story came together over the coming days/ weeks, it felt like the right title for it was “Love in War” – which was the name of a song that I had already written & recorded years before, but hadn’t released yet. The more the story unfolded, the more it felt like it was a companion piece to the song. It felt like another chapter of the same story.

I didn’t end up winning the competition prize, but for me the prize was coming up with the idea & writing the story & now sharing it with you!

Much love,

Lucy
