Date: 2014-02-08 10:43 pm (UTC)I use Microsoft Word on my laptop, and I have for seven years now. I've tried other programmes, but I find that I've become so accustomed to Word, my writing style changes when I try other programmes (e.g. my sentences get shorter and everything sounds brief and clipped). Sometimes I use Notepad for a quick drabble that is going to be less than 2k words and I know I'm going to write all in one go.
Mine is a Macbook Air, and while it's not quite as small as my previous netbook, I like it way better and I swear it's lighter too. I need that Internet connection though! I know it's my downfall in a lot of situations, but I need random name generators, research websites, resources, etc.
Question: Does anybody here use music or a certain 'sound' (rain, etc.) when they write? It seems to help some people but most of the time it just distracts me.
