When I am working on a particular project, I often end up creating a quasi-soundtrack for the book, purely as a consequence of the kind of music I listen to whilst writing it, and that helps get me in the correct creative state of mind.
So far, much of The Wicked Wizard of Oz has been written whilst listening to the 'Doctor Strange' and 'Fantastic Beasts' soundtracks. But now that I've moved onto the Wicked Witch of the West's route through the adventure I find the music changing too, to that of Blackmore's Night, specifically the album 'Fires at Midnight'.
Oh, and for those of you keeping count, the writing of The Wicked Wizard of Oz is rapidly approaching section 700!
"The modern master of the gamebook format" (Rob Sanders)... "Can do dark very well" (Jonathan Oliver)... "Green gets mileage out of his monsters" (SFX Magazine)... "It takes a firm editorial hand and a keen understanding of the tone of each piece to make a collection this diverse work, and Green makes it look effortless" (Starburst Magazine)... "A charming blend of camp creatures, humour, and genuine horror" (Set the Tape)
