My anti-Valentine collection of short stories, many of them reprinted from literary magazines, will include something I hope is useful — a playlist of songs that will soothe all the trampled or pissed-off hearts out there.
My Facebook family was instrumental in helping me develop the list that you’ll find in the e-book of Single Edged Blades: 7 Stories for a Broken & Angry Heart. Each story has a sound track and a thorough listing appears at the end of the book.
I’m going to put my top choices in each category here for your listening pleasure or derision. The full list runs from Punk to Country to Hair Metal — every genre. Feel free to add suggestions for other songs in the comments.
Misery
Rage
Revenge
You can pick up the story collection for 99 cents at your favorite vendor, Amazon, Nook, or iTunes.
