The Thirteenth Hour Podcast #566: Thirteenth Hour Sequel Update 15 - Musical Interlude - Starting the Wayfarer's Theme

This week, I'm working on an idea for a main theme for one of the main characters of The Thirteenth Hour sequel, the Wayfarer. Part of this episode was recorded outside (sorry for the environmental sounds) and the rest in front of a keyboard where I was hammering out a skeleton framework for the theme.

I think I settled on an illustration style I like for this book - ballpoint pen with watercolors. Here's a picture of the Wayfarer from the first part of the story:

Once Upon a Dream, the second Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, is now out in digital form!

It is out on most major streaming services such as Bandcamp, Spotify, and YouTube Music. (If you have no preference, I recommend Bandcamp since there is a bonus track there and you will eventually be able to find tapes, CDs, and special editions of the album there as well.)

-Check out the pixelart music videos that are out so far from the album:
