Are you looking for the perfect instrumental playlist for writing emotional, sad scenes? I've got you. This playlist is a one-hour mix of some of my favorite background music for writing heartbreaking moments – breakup scenes, character death scenes, or your protagonist remembering their tragic past... I hope you enjoy listening! Every month I post a new thoughtfully-curated playlist (both instrumental and lyrical) to inspire your writing sessions.

Story isn’t about “what happens” — it’s about how what happens affects and transforms the characters. I believe that there is an exact science (a recipe, if you will) behind a perfect story. And if you know what ingredients you need, you can create your own perfect story with ease and confidence. That’s what we talk about every week on this channel – and if it’s something you’re into, be sure to subscribe and join this community!
