Hi Bernard,
I listen to a variety of musical talent which seems to jolt the creative side of my brain. Often, it doesn’t match the actual content of my writing, but nevertheless kindles that vital spark of energy. Do you use background music as a form of inspiration – and, if so, what’s your favourite type of music (if it’s not too personal a question)?

Also, please forgive the dashes. And the brackets! :)
