with fairly standard and boring guitar playing. But they develop over time as you play them. Plus if the writer plays the song in front other musicians or a producer then those people will suggest ideas that the writer won't see due to the writer being too bogged down in the song.
dont think there are any rules, but I guess when you write a song just strumming the chords makes sense but once youve got other instruments involved it isn't as necessary to have the guitar backing the whole thing up so you can use it to add a different emphasis

You should probably always play guitar like in that Justin Timberlake song where he says 'drums' before the break.
Do what sounds best for the character of the song
there is no right or wrong way of doing it.
