How to Avoid Distractions When You are Writing a Book

        When sitting down to write often times we find that there are so many distractions that getting any writing done just doesn't happen.  I don't care where you write, whether it is your home, office, or some other place there will always be some sort of distraction which will prevent you from getting the writing done that you are attempting to accomplish.  And, if all that isn't bad enough, you have to hope that you and your family stay healthy throughout your writing project.  I can't tell you how many times being sick can interfere with whatever you are attempting to write; not to mention all the times you find yourself tired from working a long, hard day.  

     So if you want to get more writing done without too many distractions, I found a video that has helped me a great deal with doing just that. (See video below)

     And here is another video that offers 10 tips for avoiding distractions when writing that I also found has been quite helpful to me, and just might help you as well.

     Personally, some times I find that the best way to avoid distractions is to wear a pair of headphones and play some soft music as I write.  I don't know why this seems to help but it does.

     Hopefully you have found some tips and techniques from this article that you can use to help you avoid distractions when writing.  If there is something that you do that wasn't mentioned above I hope you will leave me a comment and tell me what you do.  Thanks.

     In my next blog article, I am going to discuss if it is a good idea to have a lot of characters or just a few in your story.

     So stay tuned!
