Music & Mood

There is proof that music can affect the way you feel. We know it is used to set the tone for writing. There are several useful ways to use music when writing.

Music is good to help me focus on the writing and block away all other distraction. Since I have two dogs that are pretty rumbustious, they tend to get excited when playing the often that leads to barking.

Sometimes I will find myself listening to a particular song and the beat of the music or even the lyrics will inspire an idea. Haven’t you ever been listening to a song and you can actually imagine the scene before you? Well, for me that has happened numerous times.

So, if you have not tried listening to music when you need to focus, are writing or are looking for inspiration, give it a chance you will find that it is quite useful.

Off to pick a playlist for my writing today. Until next time.
