Random question. Does anyone else use music to help them write? Like do you get inspired by music or~ do you listen to certain songs to help you write out certain scenes?
Or am I just weird? [x
I'm always inspired by songs. I have like.. a whole playlist for Raiden & Charlize.
Music can inspire me to draw too.
Weird? ^__^;

I don't really have specific music I listen to when writing specific characters, but I do listen to music.
Usually instrumental stuff as anything with lyrics distracts me and I start singing along. But I find it much easier to write with music than without. Everything seems to flow better. ^^

It depends what I'm trying to write or if I'm pressed for time. Occasionally I will write to music and I'm always listening to music when I'm writing any type of song fics (stories or works incorporating the lyrics of a song into the plot or dialogue or narration somehow). I listened to a song about 50 times in a row while working on one once... <_<

I've done that before. Usually when I have a song I really, really like and I find helps me more than most songs, I'll listen to it to death. I haven't had a song like that for a while, and its annoying me. This place is the only writing I'm doing at the moment, as I have no inspiration to work on ficlets and the like. D: WOE.

Hello! How is everyone? I'm good. In a freaky good mood and I don't know why. I've just finished watching this anime called Bokura Ga Ita. It's soooogood. -Loves it.- Anyone else seen it? Haha. I do that with songs too. I'll listen to one I like constantly and then get sick of it. x___x; Then I won't listen to it for ages. I have one I'm obsessed with now, lol. Actually I have a couple.. but one I'll listen to more than the others. Silver - That sucks that you can't get inspired! I get inspired from this site. xD I'm always writing random bits for Raiden & Charlize that aren't for the RP. But y'know I'm developing them more for my own story. Maha. I just love Raiden so much that I want to keep using him in other things. [x -Skips away.-

Can't say I've heard of the anime. What's it about?
Glad you're feeling happy. :3 I'm bored out of my tiny little mind at work at the moment, and cannot wait to go home. These shifts are driving me nuts. =__=
I have a song I love at the moment, because its fast paced and upbeat, but I think if I listen to it too much it'll annoy me, and I don't want it to do that, cause I actually like the song!
Hmm... my problem is I get ideas, but when I come to write them, it sounds rubbish. I haven't been able to do anything regarding writing or drawing or anything lately, and its really starting to bug me. >_<
I like developing my guys here too. Its fun, and they're becoming more well rounded I think. And yay for Raiden love! You must draw him! *poke*

Mmm.. Bokura Ga Ita is about this girl Nana who falls for and starts to date the most popular boy in school Yano. But he's not at perfect as he seems and they come across lots of problems throughout their relationship and time in school.
Something like that xD I can't explain stuff well. -cough.-
Are you on til late at work? You gotta find your muse! Whoop it back into shape, haha.
Yeah. I think I'll try drawing him this week. I shall you all when it is done. ^___^

Woot for being in a good mood! That's what I was in the other day, but silly Donovan has convinced the Verity twins to steal my muse. >_> I've found that RPing is one of the better ways to develop a character; while RPing, my characters tend to be thrust into situations that I wouldn't necessarily put them in if I was writing a story or something. I've written (many) stories with Sharpe and some with Kiran. Donovan, Aislynn and the Verity twins feature as minor characters in some of the stories I've written, so it's fun.

Hey Silver, I think we should leave the beach thread as it is. Raiden wouldn't stay, unless of course he fell asleep. Is that okay? ^^'

Alright... since I'm going to be gone towards the end of this week, I'll go ahead and wait to post in the bonfire... Donovan and Kiran - and probably Aislynn - will just be showing up late or something.

Hello~
Sorry I haven't been on! Looks like things are going a little slow too. ^-^;
Work is super hectic and this site for some weird reason keeps acting weird on my laptop. Something about an error with the page. But it seems to be okay now.. weird.
Random note. I'm starting my Japanese lessons again. I used to take them in college and then sort of hit a road block and totally lost all of my motivation. But I've started again and I'm totally motivated! Whee~ My mum said she'd come on holiday to Japan with me. Whoop. I don't know if anyone else on here is learning or interested in learning japanese, but if you are lemme know! We could help each other, right?
I keep re-drawing Raiden. For some reason he won't turn out the way I want him too and it is driving me mad. It's his hair! Argkhfkdfblarg. I'll have him done by tomorrow night! -Determined.-
Anywho I need to post in the bonfire & .. everywhere else. Haha.
Byeeee.
Oh, Silver. Do you wanna do another Raiden & Anemone thread? I miss writing them, haha. Yes? No? Lemme know.
