[Haskell-cafe] Lifting Writer to ListT

Hi all,
Suppose I have this monad stack:
type MyMonad = ListT (Writer W)
Where ListT is done right (from the list-t package).
What I want is a nondeterministic computation where each
alternative logs to the same writer, and indeed the type of
runWriter . toList
is MyMonad a -> ([a], w)
so I think I got it right.
What I would like to do is to write an instance of MonadWriter
for this monad, but I'm stuck with the implementation of listen.
Just using lift won't work, and indeed I see that MonadWriter
lifting instances for other monads (e.g MaybeT), are a bit convoluted.
Could someone explain me a little bit what should I do (what
listen should do in a ListT in the first place)
Thank you :)
Nicola
