Writing Tips

though i have yet to use the "get plastered and write spooky shit" method, i do have one technique that i use alot to get into the 'feel' of what i am writing. I listen to music that is either themed or reminds me of a part the story i am writing, and let the events play out in my mind like a music-video of sorts. then i describe them in as best a way as i can, put it down on paper, then edit it and make it more reader-friendly (I.E. make it flow out of my mind and into the reader's mind). It is a really good way to get a feel of the story.
