I personally find that when I've found the right music for the moment it's easier to get into a good flow. I try to match the music I listen to with what I'm writing at the moment - fast paced music for action sequences etc. Instrumental music works best, but sometimes music with lyrics is the only thing that will do it.

Do you also take help from music in this way? What do you usually listen to?

New Here

Hi people,

I'm new here and pretty new to writing. I've been a computer professional most of my life, but the past few years I've developed an itch to write. Back around 2004 I had an episode of writing poetry (available on my journal) but then stopped - lost motivation.

Now I've been moved to write a Young Adult novel, and I've got a prologue and two chapters. Only one other person has read it so far, but she thinks it's good and that I should finish it and try to get it published. I'd kind of like to post excerpts here and see what others think - but I don't know if that would mess up chances for commercial publication.

But in any case, I'm glad I found this place and hopefully I will be able to learn from others here.

-Steve
