But after what you have said I must try relevant music. My protagonists are currently in Rome, trying to get to Antwerp, so I really need some European flavours, I suppose. Verdi always works for things like that. Listening to Verdi when writing though... dunno! I'll try it next week.Rosanne Dinglihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18297891545294681562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37267943.post-89799092866952090542010-12-15T22:30:19.717+08:002010-12-15T22:30:19.717+08:00Writing to music is very iffy for me, even though ...Writing to music is very iffy for me, even though I love practically everything and anything. If I'm writing a challenging or emotional scene, I like to have 'white sound' music, ie music I know so well I don't really hear it, and that stuff is likely to soothe me enough that the writing doesn't become too emotional.<br /><br />With one novel, and one only, I drowned in Andean pipes music.<br /><br />Otherwise it's more about typing in certain favourite fonts, seeing two pages on my wide screen, absolute silence and no interruptions and - but I rarely achieve this - my immediate surroundings absolutely neat and tidy so I can unleash the chaos on it to be tamed, rather than taking on more chaos from what's around me!Annalouisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05520301672514926865noreply@blogger.com
