Every Friday at noon, paid subscribers receive a Spotify playlist curated by Sylvie herself—designed to set the mood for the 5PM story drop. And don’t forget: through May 30, all content is free for everyone.
But I couldn’t wait until Friday to share the first one.
Here is your soundtrack to that sultry San Antonio night. The first five tracks trace the story’s arc:
🥃 The hotel lobby
🛏️ A restless slumber
✨ A midnight escape
🌚 A secret tryst
🤝 A quiet goodbye
That final song? Think of it as what plays when the screen fades to black and the credits roll.
Here’s how to sink into it:
Hit play while you read
Let it wash over you before the story
Or press repeat whenever you want to relive the moment
These playlists are my favorite way to blur the lines between music and memory, to be as atmospheric as possible. Honestly? They might be more artful than my writing. I obsess over every lyric, every transition, just for you.
And in case you’re curious about what’s coming, I couldn’t help myself…! Here’s a sneak peek of the first track from this coming Friday’s playlist:
Different story. Different mood. Equally lush.
Happy listening.
The PostScript…
