Music

February 2, 2025

Sometimes I listen to a familiar classical piece of music on repeat when I need to create new ideas for a story in progress. This method is a source of comfort because there are no words for me to ponder other than my own thoughts. My mind knows and expects the music which allows me to escape into my imagination. I have various playlists for this sort of writing. One of my favorites is Leonard Bernstein and Samuel Barber’s Adagio for strings, Op. 11 from my Somber playlist.
