    I had my MP3 playing through all my songs in alphabetical order when I wrote the first chapter of Holding His Hand Like a Brand New Kite.

    My story Blue and Yellow's soundtrack would probably be Just A Little by The Used... Only because one line in the chorus, and the overall feel of it, really inspired me when writing. I still put it on repeat sometimes when I'm working on new chapters.

    For Insanity I listen to whichever song the chapter is titled after, so for the first chapter, I listened to Sick Hearts. After that I just have iTunes on shuffle on my playlist of The Used songs.

    For 1888 I have a playlist of songs that remind me of Jack the Ripper and/or horror movies, murder, etc. This playlist's really varied compared to some of my other ones. I have songs from bands as widely varied as Marilyn Manson to Evanescence and Tarja Turunen. I have covers of Morrisey's song Jack The Ripper, as I don't have the original.

    For my other stories, such as Click Click, I just put my iTunes on shuffle.

    I love to write to anything by Ben Gibbard. In Love
    His songs are so beautiful and simple and get me into exactly the right frame of mind.

    I made a playlist of quiet songs, specifically for when I'm writing...
    ...It has mellow tunes on it, like Interlude and Desert Song, Tool, A Perfect Circle and the Lord of the Rings theme tune.

    I cannot work with heavy music, but, at the same time, I can't work in silence either :)

    The unposted story (which I'm getting addicted to by now) called, "The World Is Ugly" was inspired by MCR's The World Is Ugly and Iron Maiden's Hallowed and Flight Of Icarus.
