Music choice for writing

I Was having a rather nice chat with a fellow Wrimo last November, for those of you new to my blog, wrimos are people who take part in national novel writing month. We was talking about chosen music for writing, now I find wordless music, such as Mozart, Beethoven and so on rather relaxing and thought provoking. He, on the other hand said he loved listening to music called death metal, I think that would kill my ears not only my brain.

You see, he writes quite dark and gothic, quite angry novels, so this helped him, he found it quite by mistake you know.  Where as, for me, I like to relax and fall deep into the world I've created, weather it be a fantasy world from my mind, or some kind of mutated London. 

Then again, I do like the beautiful sound of silence with the added tap tapping of my keyboard, well laptop keys. What I'm trying to say is, it is personal preference I guess as to what music a novelist listens to, if any. It just made me wonder if Stephen King listened to scary music to really bring out the thrills and scares.  You know what I'm trying to say? 

If not don't worry, I always have random thoughts like that, and sometimes, when there's no novel on the go. I will write them here.  Random really. 

Well, have a good Sunday, plotting for a possible romance novel for next month is under way.
