It's funny, but while music with lyrics always helps me get in the right mood for a particular type of story, I have an easier time writing with instrumental music playing. Sometimes I can do music with lyrics, but most of the time, it slows me down. I do like to have theme songs that get me in the right mode for certain characters, though. Often, I'll have a song that I'll play before I sit down to work on a longer story that takes multiple days to write. It helps me find the right mood/voice. For my NaNo novel, it was Halsey's "Tradition". For Galatea, it was a Billie Eilish song called "everything i wanted". For my recent Screams story Escape, it was Digital Daggers "The Devil Within".
Come now, Ray! This morning someone paid for my coffee before I pulled up to the Starbucks window. Made my day. And I paid for the person behind me. Hopefully it made theirs.

Besides, Netflix and two-day delivery from Amazon rock! XD
Since I joined a class created by bobturn, I've been working my butt off on this new story. These characters really have a mind of their own, I'm starting to think that I'm biting off more than I can chew! Perhaps my story should have been a little smaller in scope but I think it's worth telling so I'm going to hack away at it until I'm finished.
So far, I'm over 4000 words and counting. I think the final tally will be around 6k, but we will have to see. I'm really excited to show everyone and hope that it will be worth the wait. See ya round, folks! I'm going back into my lair now.
Don't know why this is happening
But I'll do what I want
I'll do what I please
I'll do it again till I've got what I need
I keep swinging my hand through a swarm of bees 'cause I
I want honey on my table
