Hey guys, the title says it all.  Just the same as before, but, ah... NEW!
So, here's the prompt for discussion and such:
What kind of music do you like to write to?  Or would you rather have silence?  Which bands, which songs, inspire you?  If your writing was in a movie, what music would be on

Hey all.  I know some of you are writers (HUZZAH TO WRITERS!) and so this is the place to come and talk about just that.  Hopefully we can learn from each other and have a blast talking about something that means a lot to us.
For a starter question:  Why do you write?
It's harder to answer than it looks.
