Setting It To Music

I know some individuals like to write while their favorite music is playing, and others prefer silence. I am a silence person myself but there are special cases.
By way of example, Assuming that the kids are home and making a racket, music through headphones is a excellent way to isolate myself for an hour or two. I don’t mean I wander round the house 24/7 in a musical daze, but if I need a couple of quiet hours of writing time to finish off my word count this is the way to get it.
Second, if I am writing an vital scene I find the right music could really endorse to  set my own mood, and as a result the mood of the piece I am writing.
And that’s really the reason for this blog post.
You see, although you could listen to music while writing, how carefully do you select the pieces? I use my own yPlay software which allows 100 named playlists, but anything else with similar features should do. And here’s what you need: a playlist for each mood and style of writing. Have a Romance playlist with gentle love tunes, an Action playlist with heavy drumming and wild electric guitars, perhaps a Classical playlist for a bit of culture – something to listen to while you’re writing about a visit to a posh hotel or restaurant, forexample.
What you don’t want to do is have one playlist with all your faves mixed up. It’s wonderfully hard to write a touching romantic scene when heavy metal is hammering your ears one minute and Cliff Richard is going on about his walking talking doll the next.
