Greetings, Ali. You are definitely on the right track to consider writing. And, IMO, a musical background is a real asset because the rightly chosen words make melody in the mind, in any genre. I believe you will hear this silent music. And nothing beats a jazz twist to the expected. Bone up on vocabulary, and always keep a thesaurus at your elbow. Oh- and read a lot, all arenas and eras of literature, not because you have to, but because you want to.

Welcome to WOL.
