Playlist: Songs that Inspired Beyond Eight Seconds

2/4/2022

Beyond Eight Seconds Book by Carly Kade
Playlists make my spurs jingle! I make music playlists for each book I write. My love stories are written while listening to music—all types of music. Some times it’s classical, sometimes it’s a movie soundtrack, other days it’s jazz or classic rock, and a lot of the time it was country while I was writing Beyond Eight Seconds.

From ‘Girl Like You’ by Jason Aldean to ‘You Should Probably Leave" by Chris Stapleton, I repeated these particular songs over and over while working on the fourth book in the In the Reins series. Here are the songs I think would definitely make a solid soundtrack while you are reading the book. Happy listening!

American Horse Publications Conference Back in the Saddle
My spurs are still jingling from the American Horse Publications (AHP) Conference in Texas! Over the course of three days, I visited the Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame, rode a Longhorn at the Fort Worth Stock Yards, found a HUGE fork, and spent time learning from and networking with incredible equine creatives! It was a joy to be back in the saddle attending this conference in person. Here's a recap from the event featuring a mini-movie of my adventures.
