Do you like to write while listening to music?

As much as I love listening to my music, sometimes it can be a distraction or nuisance and interferes with my writing, especially when I'm trying to concentrate. For those times, when I want to focus, I turn off all sounds so I can hear myself think and write in peace.

I love listening to music while I write.
It allows my mind to focus, but think freely at the same time.
While I write my stories, especially. I incorporate the kind of music I'm listening to in my writing.
If I'm listening to Louis Armstrong Kiss Of Fire, that is what I will write about. I get into what the characters are doing, where they're going, etc.

On one of the ongoing stories I'm writing, I have Louis Armstrong playing St James Infirmary. Describing "Kate" getting out of the wine coloured 1952 Hot Rod, heading into the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. Hearing the music in the background gets me right into the detail of every part of every scene. The smell of the interior, the rumble of the engine, the looks of desire, and so on.

If it wasn't for the music, whose to say what my stories would turn out like...

"I went to Gramma's and we made cookies. They were great. The end"
Yeah, I think that would some it up...lol

I enjoy typing things and writing articles for people while I listen to music. It gives me some inspiration and even some ideas at times when I listen to music and work. It also keeps me focus and relaxed.

Music can be really good therapy and open up many creative doors especially for the writer. Some days, I have my Spotify music player open and tunes playing all day and that helps the day go fast.

And, what type of writing do you offer? For instance, are you a blogger or do you sell articles and other content?

I enjoy listening to music. However, when I am writing I prefer silence. When there is silence, I can concentrate on what I am writing. I listen to music to get motivated for writing, however, when I am writing I don't listen to music. Music come as a great distraction when I am writing.

I don't think I can be comfortable writing while the music is playing. I mean that is not the way I want to do my writings since I am someone that gives my all during the time I spend writing. So, listening to music while I write is not okay for me.

I may be getting old because I seem to be annoyed with music when I am writing. When I was younger, I couldn’t write without music that’s why my transistor radio was always on my side particularly on my writing table. But things have changed. I prefer silence more than anything else. Any sound can interrupt my concentration and ruin my focus that’s why I want a place that is quiet when I work.
