It's been 20 years now since I left music school and my creative, for want of a better word, process still clings to my music composition methods: hunting and pecking for melodies, for transitions, transpositions, chord changes, sounds that fascinate, that lead from themselves to the next to the next and, while it's not always the best process for speed or for my own creative well-being, it's the way things eventually show up – with fiction at least. Fiction is music.
