Summer heat is not yet at its peak, but if you’re like me, you love the sun and vacation time! Frankly, it can be a struggle to be stuck inside writing all day to meet deadlines while it is so beautiful outside.

While I can and do sometimes venture out to a local bookstore or coffee shop to write for a day, just as a change of pace, most of the time I write and edit from a comfy chair at home. And looking out a window at the sunshine often makes me want to exercise a bit of freelance freedom, quit for the day, pull out my kayak, and hit the water!

When deadlines and bills keep me pinned inside and tied to the computer, I crank up a music or video playlist and plow on. Lately, I’ve been playing more summertime music, so I thought I’d share a bit just for fun.

That’s right, there is absolutely no freelancing advice to be shared in this post. Just some fun music. So take a break, sit back, crank up my top 10 favorite summer songs, and jam the tunes!
