I find it real hard to concentrate in general at all really :)

I can't stand writing to silence...it creeps me out.

But I usually listen to soundtrack music, like Harry Potter (Fireworks, the famous Nick Hooper song, is my very favorite! But Flight of the Order of the Phoenix is good too) and Pirates of the Carribean, though I usually end up writing about pirates when I listen to that...but that's okay!!

Though while writing my muse essay, I was listening to RENT

Oh, I happen to listen to the latest hits, some classical ones, anime soundtracks (DNAngel), some movie soundtracks...

The DNAngel soundtrack is so good! I'm waiting for my friend to burn it onto a CD for me so I can put it on my iPod!

I listen to pretty much anything. it's more just background noise to keep me from going crazy when I type up long bits of text.

HOWEVER...there are times where I can assemble a sort of "soundtrack" for a story, that corresponds with the characters and plot very well. If I have one of those for what I'm typing, I often shove it in a playlist and have it go on repeat. :D

I may be the exception here, but I listen mostly to classical music while I write. I listen to different composers for the different atmosphere of writing, like Tchaikovsky for something emotional, Mozart for something witty. Yeah, the list goes on. I find they are such an inspiration to writing, others definitely should try.

i'm always listening to music ^^ (even while studying for exams -.-). it kind of helps me concentrate. i get hyper if it's too quiet o.0

i'm a fan of korean music and ballads, so i mostly listen to that. sometimes also r'n'b.

Not only do I listen to it, I sometimes incorporate it into a story. It can be a real mood setter.

Yeah, I always listen to music while I write. Well, not always but a lot of the time. I mostly listen to Linkin Park, Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Seether, 30 Seconds to Mars, Avril Lavigne (old look, not new look), Paramore, Flyleaf, My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Lifehouse, AFI, All American Rejects, Papa Roach, KoRn, I could go on forever most likely if you kept me going so I'm going to shut up now.

If I don't listen to music while I'm working I get really jittery and hyper. I need to move. I can't while I write otherwise I'll usually lose the idea. Well, for like a chapter or a stand-alone. Not a whole story lol. Can you imagine that? Sheesh, I'd be on the computer for MONTHS! Haha, I don't think my dad would like that. He doesn't like it when I go on for an hour. =P So yeah, I listen to music when I write. Not reading though. If I listen to music while I read, I pay attention to the music, not the words...all right SOMETIMES while I read.
