My midweek wake-up call playlist is now available on Soundcloud - I hope you enjoy the selection this week. Someone asked me how the whole Soundcloud thing came about. I had previously joined Soundcloud to follow some artists who I like very much [Millie Manders, Hans, Roses Are Blue] and I noticed one day that someone had posted a radio show - I didn't even know that you could do that; and then found all kinds of stuff on the system ... but no book trailers or audiobook excerpts - and then it just made sense to add our audiobook excerpts and book trailer sound tracks to the system as a way of sharing them.
In so doing, I learned how to create a playlist [yes; I know, if only I was 30 years younger these things probably wouldn't take half the time] and as soon as I had created it, I realized that I could easily share the music that I liked/discovered. I really appreciate a chillout session at the weekend - so it made sense to create a #chillout playlist, but I also very much enjoy finding and discovering new music, in all genres, so the #Wednesday #Wakeup playlist came along.
They seem to be becoming more and more popular - and more people are listening to the audiobook samples [the original point of the exercise] - and I really enjoy putting the lists together and publishing them twice a week.
Wednesday Wake Up Call - 22nd June 2016 - Playlist
Now for something completely different ...
I am a vegan, and use Youtube all the time to find recipes - it's an amazing resource. I have habitually shared those videos via Twitter through the Carter Seagrove Project timeline - but I felt it was becoming clogged with recipes, and there are related things [like animal welfare, nutrition, and fair-trading] that I wanted to share that really have nothing to do with The Carter Seagrove Project [90% of our tweets have nothing to do with our own books!] So I decided to open a new Twitter account devoted to vegan recipes, and other related subjects, like nutrition. The new account is called @Vegetalienne. I would be thrilled if you popped over to have a look at the new timeline.
Thank you!
