The Off Season playlist


I put this mix together as I was just beginning to write The Off Season (which at that time was called A Whole Herd of Trouble, but that’s another story) because I wanted to get the mood right. I probably shouldn’t say anything more, except that Melissa Etheridge, bless her little rock and roll heart, does garner a mention in TOS. This mix got many, many listenings during some of the chapters. Now of course I can’t hear any of these songs without thinking of D.J.

I loved the book Dairy Queen and am really excited to read Off Season! I also was wondering two things: 1) are they going to make a movie of it and 2) are you going to write a third book? I really want the series to continue and I also think it would be awesome if they made a movie!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-) Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
