I’ve been writing fanfiction purely for fun, I don’t even want to share it with anyone, and these playlists have helped me get so much done. They can embody any and every emotion, and it’s just great to write with these.
Yes! It got posted earlier than I expected. Just hearing the first 2 musics that you picked made me know that I would love this Playlist. You really are an expert at making Playlists, Mel. I saw (heard) the two Playlists you made on Spotify for “Leaving Wishville” and “Capsule.” I also want to say that it was a good choice to add “Welcome to Wonderland” in the Wishville Playlist. I really love that song. Thanks for the video, Mel!
I have ADHD and couldn’t concentrate on reading bc people were talking too loud so I looked up songs to read to and this popped up, well part one did. These videos are the only reason I can read today without being overly frustrated. Thank you, the songs are beautiful and the animation is gorgeous. Thank you again ? keep up the good work ?☺️☺️
I have adhd to and it helps so much I can just listen to this and read.
Same, except I was trying to write.
These playlists are absolutely beautiful
I got ADHD too. It really does help. Love these playlists <3
@Whispurr C4t yeppp
Same here
I love that both playlists are exactly and hour because I’ve been trying to take at least 1 or 2 hours of my day to write and it helps me track time. Thank you for the wonderful playlists!!!
Same here!!
@Samaël Deul yessirrr
Exactly, same I absolutely love them
@Lost Island Press Love the playlists. They’re really helping me write and come up with ideas. Nice inclusion of moonlight sonata in the last one btw. Very nice piece 🙂
You’re welcome! Good luck with your writing!
I know I already commented. But I am sitting here right now listening to this while working on college, and this is just gorgeous. I feel like I’m in a movie or something. And I adore that feeling. This playlist needs to be in a movie. Plain and simple.
:)))
:))
You have a great taste in music, Mel. I’d love to hear more of your playlists!
Mel is currently curating one playlist for this channel every month 🙂 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSG_5067zr_JWCKFJ95ShiAWHxbn7q1My
This is so relaxing…It definitely sets the mood for writing a chapter a day.
I’ve practically memorized the song progression of Part One so now I’m super excited for something fresh with this Part Two!
Same!
art suggestion for future music mixes: the setting can be the sky. the people can be sitting or lying on clouds or floating in the sky reading. maybe the moving element can be the clouds moving a little or the sky changing colors during a sunset/sunrise…
Thank you so much for the suggestion! I hope you saw the final version that we created from your idea 🙂 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6waM3NNHw5k&list=PLSG_5067zr_JWCKFJ95ShiAWHxbn7q1My&index=3&t=2s
YES
Thank you so much for this playlist! It has helped me greatly in editing my book, and kept me focused in the most wonderful and whimsical way. My mind has been flooding with ideas and energy because of this playlist, so thank you for infusing my creativity with life!
This is a literal movie soundtrack. It helps me write new chapters for the novel I’m working on. Love it!
2 lovely playlists, use them to focus on my artwork ??
I always struggle picking the right music when doing my school work, the music would be so busy and I would loose concentration or too boring and not motivate me – this channel really has a balance and its just so so so perfect and right, I got so much of my school assignments done! LMFAO thank you for this!
The balance between the music being in the background yet interesting is great :))
I literally have been struggling to find ideas to write for a while now. This couldn’t be more helpful. Thank you Lost Island Press.
Our pleasure!
This playlist was on point in the mood of the book that I’m reading. The transition of the music match the book’s transition. Love it!
YES! I loved the first part video you made a while back, and I LOVE this one. I am adding it to my study playlist! <3
These playlists literally vibe with any book I write while helping me relax and just let the words flow! I really enjoy them especially on a night time writing spurt. Thanks for these amazing playlist! I hope you make more!
@Lost Island Press*gasp* so excited!!!
Part 3 comes out tomorrow 🙂
I just started getting into reading again at the start of this year and for someone who don’t read I’ve read a total of 17 books (James Patterson Alex Cross series) this music eases the mind and makes it easier to concentrate on the words! Absolutely love it. You’ve earned my sub thanks for the amazing content ! 🙂
This is amazing, I am trying to write a fanfiction book and this is helping me a lot right now, thanks a lot! Keep up the good work!
