Submission, Seduction, and Soundscapes

🎵 Welcome to the Music 🎵

This is where my stories find their voice—literally.

I’ve been exploring song creation using Suno AI, and what started as a clunky theoretical experiment has turned into one of the most unexpectedly joyful parts of my creative process. I’m still learning, but I’m beginning to shape the kinds of songs I’ve always wanted to hear—ones that echo the emotional arcs of the characters and worlds I’ve written.

Most of these songs are narrative-driven, rooted in the books and stories you’ll find elsewhere on this site. Writing lyrics feels a lot like writing poetry: I spend a lot of time playing with rhyme, rhythm, and structure to match the emotional tone of each piece, and coming up with just the right instrumental and vocal styles to complement it. Sometimes I’ll use a steady ABAB rhyme with a tight four-syllable cadence to create a slower, more hypnotic rhythm. Other times, songs might need a more broken structure that lets the rhythm breathe and break in all the right places to create a sense of emotional unraveling.

Each track here is its own little world. I hope you enjoy exploring them as much as I’ve loved creating them!

Each book or series listed here has a webpage featuring original songs inspired by its characters, themes, and emotional arcs. Click on a title below to dive into the music of that world:
