Music!

Hello everyone, my name is Corinne Starr, I'm sixteen and the second oldest of ten kids.

I don't know about you guys but for me, music is a huge part of my writing. It makes my imagination run wild with new ideas, story plots, plot twists, characters, scenes, etc. If I haven't made it clear enough already, I love music (and not just because it blocks out the noise of all the chaos and craziness going on around me ;) I honestly have no idea what I'd do without it.
So, I thought that I would compile some lists of music that inspires me the most when writing. Almost all of these songs I pulled from my Spotify playlists so you can search for them there or on YouTube too. (Spotify, by the way, is the greatest music app ever invented. If you haven't heard of it, I highly suggest you check it out.)
Anyway, here are my lists, which I hope spark your imagination and boost your motivation.
