Basically I make music as a side "hobby" and thought about making music to set the atmosphere for a novel I'm working on. But if i did where would i upload it and the main question, would people actually listen to them?

you upload on youtube and link it to your stories
people def listen to it if it's an embed player like wattpad, sadly SH doesn't embed videos, so fewer people would click on it, but peeps on desktop would still listen to it ig

eh, only if you want to

the audience there is different, but crossposting is never wrong
I like their editor and the embed video function, but it's not very transparent and their search function is sh***************t*ss³

I think it's better to use background music for an audiobook. Otherwise, it will only work as a source of inspiration. I sometimes enjoy listening to suno to hear a themed poem performed by him.

Hmm that's a cool idea, I do voice acting as a narrator sometime. Should I make an audio book? If I did as a person who listens to them do you have any suggestions?

I have thought of doing the same, basically you just hyperlink the YT/SoundCloud/BandCamp/etcetera.

The majority of people find music distracting. Absolutely not needed IMO.
