I like to write to music. My personal preference is a little strange: I like to have music playing in the foreground and some kind of noise, like the ballgame on TV, in the background. I am pretty sure this comes from years of having to concentrate at the kitchen table while my siblings chattered on. When it’s too quiet, I can’t focus. When it’s too noisy I can’t concentrate. Yes, I am a delicate flower.
I have just finished my latest manuscript (LOST, due out May 2014), and I thought I would share the most-played songs from writing it. (Links are from iTunes)
