music, and writing

[dakegra]

Do you write whilst listening to music? Or do you prefer just the clatter of the keyboard or scratching of a pen?

I'm currently listening to Lúnasa, 'Mean Fomhair' from their self-titled album, having tried various other genres with little success. I have to say it's going quite well.

So, dear writer. What do *you* listen to when writing?

When I was writing the Inside Novell NetWare series of technical books, I used to write best when I had on old black and white movies.

Now, I find that TripHop (Hooverphonic, Portishead, Lamb...) puts me in the right frame of mind to produce fiction.
