Or does it just come to you?</i><br /><br />For the most part, it just comes to me. I had to think about Zachary, though, and it was a fun exercise! To this day, he's still a bit of a mystery, even to me, but I'm enjoying getting inside his head a little more in writing SHINE.<br /><br />Valia Lind asked:<i>Love the soundtrack!!! Was it made before, during, or after the book was written? :)</i><br /><br />All of the above. "Soul Meets Body" was the very first song I knew had to be there, before I wrote one word. If the entire book has a theme song, this is it. ("Chasing Cars" was probably the overall theme song for SHADE.) Then as I was writing it, I added more songs, and finally, a few weeks ago I rounded out the soundtrack. I love this stuff! :)<br /><br />Kryskat asked:<i>If you were stranded on a deserted tropical island and you were allowed to have one character from your book as a companion and your choice of food who and what would they be?</i><br /><br />Definitely Zachary, and not for the obvious reason. ;-) He's very level-headed and probably has a whole storehouse of survival knowledge in that brain of his. As for food, probably eggs (assuming I could keep them fresh). Or some sort of vitamin-and-mineral fortified cereal, so that I'd get all my essential nutrients and not die of scurvy or whatever.Jerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13986567025249948237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787602813106249477.post-38296819278710859322011-05-10T22:37:54.219-04:002011-05-10T22:37:54.219-04:00I don't want to post any spoilers, but my view...I don't want to post any spoilers, but my view point of Logan has completely changed.

Unfortunately, I know almost none of these songs because I am terminally unhip, but from the title alone "All the Weird Kids Know" would be great for my personal soundtrack. Or perhaps "Galileo" (the only one I know and own) because reincarnation + self-deprecation = win!<br />Thanks for the great giveaway!Kimberly B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06915078905615036882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787602813106249477.post-78599594722433182942011-05-10T21:21:56.559-04:002011-05-10T21:21:56.559-04:00It's so cool how music plays such a huge part ...It's so cool how music plays such a huge part in Shift :) I also loveeeee Inside Out by Eve 6 :)<br /><br />aprilxu2222@gmail.comApril Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16856680745483238756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787602813106249477.post-6960273612585345282011-05-10T20:53:24.144-04:002011-05-10T20:53:24.144-04:00I haven't read the books yet, but I really wan...I haven't read the books yet, but I really want to! <br /><br />I would choose "Mo Ghile Mear" for the soundtrack of me because, in my life, it's all about Irish. <br /><br />~JK~<br />jaike writer (at) hot mail (dot) comJaiKaieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14395765550586594869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787602813106249477.post-80080893976703962402011-05-10T19:05:23.882-04:002011-05-10T19:05:23.882-04:00Oh, I'm actually sad it's almost over.

Thank you for caring about your readers enough to give us this extra background into your world.<br /><br />To answer the question about Logan:<br />I can not describe the amount of pride and closure I felt for his character in SHIFT. Yes, there were times where I wanted to shut him up and tell him to grow up, but then I was reminded about how I felt and reacted to outside interferences during my first love relationship. To me, he was finally the "man" I wanted him to be. Although I am still TEAM Z, I wish Logan peace and love in the afterlife!<br />kchilyard(at)yahoo(dot)comKaseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835163960403028806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787602813106249477.post-72453847492754455142011-05-10T18:44:18.056-04:002011-05-10T18:44:18.056-04:00You picked AMAZING SONGS! <3 them all!!!

(I really love the A Place To Bury Strangers track - Keep Slipping Away. Had to buy that one!)<br /><br />A good song for Logan & Aura: And All That Could Have Been by Nine Inch Nails. Love that song.<br /><br />After reading SHIFT I do feel differently towards Logan.

Haha music is awesome :)<br /><br />I have read Shift, but honestly I read it a year ago and cannot remember what songs would fit well! :P So I have to say the song 'Enchanted' by Taylor Swift fits into my life story. I've been lucky enough to meet so many wonderful people (authors and celebrities included) and if it happens I'll probably never see them again, I don't think he/she realizes just how enchanted I was to meet them.<br /><br />~Alison<br />lostinbelieving(at)yahoo(dot)comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787602813106249477.post-23919885451463643422011-05-10T16:49:19.457-04:002011-05-10T16:49:19.457-04:00I love Logan with all my heart, and after reading ...I love Logan with all my heart, and after reading "Shift" and having Zach everywhere, that love only intensified. There were moments in which i thought that Logan was a bit unjust with Aura, asking her to wait, but on the other hand, I can't imagine all the pain and longing he must feel when he sees her. There were moments in which I wondered how much af all that love Logan professed was genuine or, just like his appearance, is a feeling he only experiences because he died loving Aura, would it have faded if he was still alive? But i guess that after reading what he wrote in THAT notebook, Logan never imagined life without Aura. He is the best character, in my opinion, and I'm gonna miss him like crazy on the next book.cristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17012015261437108416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787602813106249477.post-57035516867680675682011-05-10T16:24:11.303-04:002011-05-10T16:24:11.303-04:00Jeri - you always have the most amazing playlists ...Jeri - you always have the most amazing playlists and taste in music.
