Write Away

I try to separate my "research time" with my writing time. I'm way too bad about zoning about and staying on the Internet for hours without actually doing anything productive. It used to be easier for me to focus on writing, but it really became harder for me to actually do it without refreshing Facebook a thousand times. I'm the same way with my reading, which is why I got the cheapest Kindle, without Internet or anything fancy, because I need to separate myself if I want to get anything done.

Oh, music! I can't listen to anything with words, because then I start focusing on those words instead of my own. But I absolutely love to listen to "background music" that will play during my scene when my books inevitably get turned into movies. ;) I often put orchestrated pieces on repeat and write for awhile. But to be honest, I usually write without any sound at all. Being easily distracted sucks. :O
