Soundtrack

So I’ve asked my friend Megan Thomas* to recreate the songs I used for my video trailers to my Alise Taylor short stories. She came up with the album below which I wanted to share with you all.

Megan is a Welsh folk singer who love to compose and perform piano and guitar tracks. The album includes one of her own compositions about Alise, as well as the original Guardian Angel track that she wrote for me when I sent her a copy of the book.

At the end, there’s a sneak preview of my next series. It’s a little darker than Alise’s stories, but I’m super excited and I’m sure you will love it. Keep your eyes peeled for more information soon…

Rain’s tapping on my windowpane

Flash of time

Pater meam, miserere mei

*Megan Thomas isn’t actually real. All of these tracks were generated using SUNO. You can check out her profile here.

I’m absolutely loving exploring AI right now, and have been blown away by what is possible. I know many people are worried or angry about how these tools are going to impact creatives, but for me I love how they can help to steer my writing process. I try always to make sure I’m clear about when and where I’ve used AI in my images, writing, or music.

To be clear, I’ve never used AI for any of my writing. I have used it occasionally for some marketing blurbs, and to generate ideas for names and places, but never for the body of my work.

So, as always, all of the material here is (C) by me, Riley Monroe, 2025. Feel free to share, and please let me know what you think in the comments below!
