we’re finally kicking things off here with our first task ! we were inspired seeing a few of you already posting playlists for your characters and thus, the choice for our first task made perfect sense to us. we want to see your interpretation of what a playlist for your character looks like. it can be as long or as short as your like, and can be in whatever format you want. you could make a playlist filled with songs your character listens to on repeat, or a playlist full of songs you feel captures the essence of your character. you could make a graphic, list the songs out in a post, or just link us to a playlist ! the choice is yours, so you can be as creative as you like. when posting your playlist, make sure you tag it with hillston.task as well as hillston.task01 so we can keep track of all your wonderful creations. have fun, everyone !
