Author Spotlight and Playlist

Chantal Boudreau's Playlist:

When I was asked what songs would make an appropriate playlist for my story “Octavia”, the first
thing that came to mind was that corny novelty song, “I Don’t Like Spiders and Snakes.” But truth is,
that’s not typical when it comes to the sort of music I prefer to listen to. I’m the type of writer who
draws inspiration from music and I‘d rather write to song than to silence – it stirs my creative juices.
I always have a playlist set up before I start writing a novel, but usually hit random play for my short
stories, enjoying the chaos for my shorter works. I have eclectic tastes, but I am definitely a fan of
alternative rock and some metal, so I looked to my favourites and came up with a playlist that I think
would make the perfect sound track for Octavia:

Fragile – Megan McCauley

Phobia – Kreator

Spiders – System of a Down

Fear Factory – Replica

Scars in the Making – Fuel

Dark Room (Instrumental) – Sarah Slean

Therapy – Finger Eleven

Spiderwebs – No Doubt

Sick – Evanescence

Had Enough – Breaking Benjamin

I would imagine these songs should give you a few hints at just what Octavia is all about, or at least
the list may have piqued your curiosity. If you want to know more, you can find “Octavia” and many
other chilling tales in Fear, a charity anthology from Crooked Cat which will be available as of
October 2012.
