Do you influence your characters?

8-) You are officially my hero! I would be blushing all day at work if I tried to do that! :)
I like writing at night myself, it's quieter and keeps me from watching TV for too long. :)
Does anyone here have a playlist for every story they write? I find that influences my writing too...and helps me get into my character's head and keep my mood on the same level as my story :)

I've had a playlist for Chronos Project and way long ago I had one for More Than That. I have a list of songs that inspire me as I write in general. If I find a song really strikes a chord with a character or a scene I might replay that song over and over as I write.

I love that! I remember reading Chronos Project while playing some Nine Inch Nails and I thought that was the most appropriate background music ever. :) It was great for setting the mood :)

At work? Wow! Haha, something about a classroom full of kiddos keeps me from even THINKING about my stories at work... LOL it's a pain in the butt when I'm really motivated to write a story, though!
Tri:
I use music in the background of my writing a LOT. In Time Has a Way, I was so influenced by different songs that I chose to title every chapter with a lyric. :) I have a "writing playlist," but not really separate playlists for each story. I also have playlists for moods, so when I need to write something sexy or angsty or happy, I put them on and find my muse that way. MOST of the time it works out, haha...
