A GREAT topic for discussion!
From Merlin: QUOTE Studies done on the subject show that certain music puts the mind at ease, and aids in a person's ability to study, or relax... different things. Baroque music is said to be best. It has also been established that teenagers can do very well studying while listening to rock. Others may do the same with their own preference. Music affects the brain in particular ways - even peculiar ways. Does this relate to poetic styles? Do some age groups prefer one over the other?

I do most of my writing in two locales. At home in my office; I always have music on in the background, more for companionship, than inspiration.
At work, each and every day at 6:30am I collect my thoughts and put them into some coherent format. I have no radio or source of music to soothe my soul. Both formats work for me; I get personal satisfaction out of the things I create with or without music. My ideas and inspiration come from the newspaper; personal observations; and actual experiences. Today, sitting at my desk, I looked at the stapler and decided I should write something to honor that lonely, misunderstood piece of desktop equipment. My ultimate goal is to write the lyrics of a song. I need someone to write the melody for me. JLY ······· ·······Give thanks for your new friends of today, but never forget the warm hugs of your yesterdays.
