It's so funny that you listen to 80's music, as we have a music channel on TV that just plays 80's music. That's where my mom leaves the TV most of the time. I also like watching some TV to escape my writing. Wishing you many sales, Annalisa.

I also can't write as well with sports or TV as I can with music. The talking distracts me, yet somehow music with lyrics manages to blend into the background.

I don't usually like it, because it makes the house seem cold and unfriendly.<br /><br />Tamara - you can't beat a good rock out, I find I type a lot quicker (and the ideas come faster) when I'm writing to some metal.<br /><br />Yolanda - I'll sometimes start a film and then realise the ending credits are rolling without having watched a single minute, so I'm obviously pretty good at blocking things out too :-)<br /><br />Christine - the 80s station is amazing, so many great tunes! I wonder if you can get it in the US... the station I listen to is Absolute 80s - you may be able to find it.<br /><br />Chrys - noise works best for me, unless I'm writing something really creepy, then a silent house actually helps get me in the right mood!Annalisa Crawfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14943610814274794998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5190412120537448720.post-78929324892532372292016-06-13T17:42:03.156+02:002016-06-13T17:42:03.156+02:00Hi, Annalisa!
