Words & Music
My sixth novel, Halo Moon, will be coming out on July 20th from Five Star Publishing and to celebrate, I put together an album of the six songs that are companion pieces to the books. Each one is preceded by an excerpt from that book. Four of the songs have been previously recorded but there are two brand new songs. It’s different but that’s kind of why I liked the idea.
