Sometimes I'll just put in my earbuds to muffle the outside noise, but I am eager to try the nature noises.

I find the train one is nice to go to sleep to. Maybe I'll try writing to it one day…or maybe that will just put me to sleep at my keyboard ;)Dawn Lairamorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01615827571568264386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173408054965817352.post-32446702152384569952014-03-24T19:40:54.384-05:002014-03-24T19:40:54.384-05:00Just listened to coffitivity for the first time, a...Just listened to coffitivity for the first time, and I love it!

When I am out and about at a coffee shop I listen to music but I tell you now I LOVE your idea of a sound like you suggested. I am thinking I would totally go with the sound of being on an airplane (love that sound). Thanks for getting me to think outside my sound box!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173408054965817352.post-30256280564841778662014-03-24T13:43:11.012-05:002014-03-24T13:43:11.012-05:00I'm laughing at what your friend said about ha...I'm laughing at what your friend said about having to go to the bathroom. That would be me. Can't listen to music while I write, either, but I recently discovered I can be very productive in a noisy coffee shop, where it all blends into the background. And, like Angela, coffitivity.com is what I use at home!Joanne R.

At first I needed quiet, and wanted no sound at all. Later I needed music that I could tune out. Now I build a playlist for each book that has the vibe I'm looking for...but I think you've just convinced me the newest project (which takes place in the rocky mountains) should get a nature soundtrack! No idea yet if it'll work for me, but trying it out sounds fun. :)<br /><br />Thanks for the tip, and great post!<br /><br />--Suzanne<br />www.suzannewarr.comSuzanne Warrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15141459404743769260noreply@blogger.com
