‘A lyric, a tune fragment, a thrilling chord run’ – The Undercover Soundtrack, JW Hicks
Posted by Roz Morris @Roz_Morris in Undercover Soundtrack on November 5, 2014
My guest this week says that most of her better ideas are sparked by music. She keeps noise-making apparatus at the ready in every room in her house. When she’s stuck she charges up her headphones with inspirational pieces and does a hand-occupying household activity until the ideas return, which usually isn’t long. Quirky and speculative fiction is her milieu, and her short stories have won prizes. Now she’s launching her debut dystopia novel, Rats, with the Triskele books collective. She is JW Hicks and she’s on the Red Blog with her Undercover Soundtrack.
