In today's episode we sit down with award‑winning author Heather Snodgrass, creator of the genre‑bending novel A Love Letter to Reading. Heather blends thriller, identity, and transformation with a meticulously curated playlist that runs 99 hours long—every chapter is anchored to a song, a TV theme, or even a wrestling reference.We'll hear how the book started as a screenplay, morphed into a full‑blown novel, and why the Leon Bridges track “River” is the story's heartbeat. Heather shares her creative ritual—listening to everything from the Beatles to Taylor Swift, avoiding jazz and country, and letting lyrical storytelling guide her prose. She also reveals the quirky details that make her world unique: a pediatric oncology‑nurse‑by‑day, assassin‑by‑night protagonist named Mariana “Scorpion” Rossi; a love for Final Fantasy XIV!We'll dive into the playlists that live inside the book, discuss how music and reading evoke different emotions, and ask Heather the fun, rapid‑fire questions every fan loves—her must‑have desert‑island albums, the live act she'd book for her launch (the Beatles, of course), and the secret song that moves her soul on a deep level.Whether you're a writer seeking a soundtrack, a music lover looking for the next great novel‑playlist hybrid, or simply someone who believes “when the words fail, music speaks,” this episode has something for you. Grab your headphones, press play, and let the conversation between narrative and melody begin.

“Whether or not money comes out of this is yet to be seen. The main thing is—does it help people? Is it spreading a good message? That's ultimately why I'm doing this.” — Heather Snodgrass Actor, author, and debut novelist Heather Snodgrass joins me to talk about her first book, A Love Letter to Reading, a story that blends heart-pounding suspense with deep emotional reflection. A graduate of the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, Heather shares how her journey from acting to screenwriting to novel writing taught her to embrace creative detours and stay rooted in gratitude. Together, we explore her unconventional protagonist, Scorpion—a pediatric oncologist who moonlights as an assassin—and how writing her story became a form of self-discovery and healing. Key Takeaways: Transformation through art: Heather's path from acting to writing shows how creative callings evolve—and how storytelling finds new forms when one door closes. A character unlike any other: Her protagonist, Scorpion, is both assassin and healer—an embodiment of duality, morality, and redemption that challenges genre conventions. Writing as therapy: Heather used self-care rituals like gardening and mindfulness to process heavy emotional material, proving that writers must protect their own well-being during intense creative work. The publishing learning curve: She opted for a hybrid publishing model to get her story into readers' hands sooner, highlighting the importance of understanding all paths to publication. Feedback with perspective: Heather learned to balance taking constructive criticism seriously while still trusting her creative instincts—a valuable mindset for any creator. Purpose over profit: Her biggest takeaway—focus on impact, not income. Writing should be about helping others and spreading light, even if the financial rewards come later. Finding inspiration: Movies, music, and other art forms often reignite her creativity—reminding us that to get back into flow, sometimes you must step away from your own work.

I am Randy Andrews your host. Today on Soundtrack Alley, I'll be interviewing Heather Snodgrass a debut novelist for the book A Love Letter to Reading. We'll discuss her book at length and the curated playlist for the main character. We'll discuss also how music shapes peoples lives and how it changes lives. And with the written word, there are always more ways to look at music or at art and see something residing inside us. Heather Snodgrass is the debut award winning author behind A Love Letter to Reading—Its a novel that blends adrenaline-fueled suspense with the healing power of music. The book's main character, Ariana Rossi, is a nurse by day and a trained assassin by night. Yet in the darkest corners of her double life, she relies on music not just for inspiration, but for survival. Ariana choreographs every kill to a carefully curated playlist. For her, music becomes more than background noise—it's how she drowns out guilt, stays present, and makes sense of unbearable emotions. Heather drew from her own lifelong relationship with music, weaving in the idea that sound can anchor us through chaos. Heather used various elements of her own life including portions of music from the playlist from her Husband, her friends in the film industry and other elements to create this very personal yet very exciting and enjoyable reading experience. If anyone has ever experienced the multi-media project of Star Wars - Shadows of the Empire, this book and playlist will be for you. Here in the notes is a link not only to Heather's website but also her instagram as well as the actual Spotify Playlist .
