And I tend not to be able to listen while I write because I mentally sing along (badly) with the words. But i do find some songs will bring a WIP right into focus. Anything Taylor Swift (Princess 7 is playing this a lot) makes me think about my nearly-done story WIS.
In a complete departure, some old Cure comes to mind for another idea I'm playing with.
What about you? Can you write to music? Do you listen/read at the same time?
I never listen to music while I write but I LOVE it when I hear a song that just CLICKS with the wip!!
ReplyDeleteYes - i agree. It helps if it's around at the time you're writing. Keeps my head in the game, so to speak.
