It's always lovely to meet other cafe writers. I always think I'm going to get less done in a cafe but I leave buzzing at just how much I've got written. Oh, and, you're right, the eavesdropping is good, too! Emma Hi Cynthia

Thanks for stopping by. It’s always lovely to meet other cafe writers.

I always think I’m going to get less done in a cafe but I leave buzzing at just how much I’ve got written.

Oh, and, you’re right, the eavesdropping is good, too!

I don't really think it's the caffeine - and by the sound of it you don't either :-) More the chance to break state, switch our attention, give space to the muse... I'm glad it works for you.

I love writing in cafes for many reasons. It gets me out of the home office. When I go to the cafe, I work on my creative writing. Going elsewhere helps me to not get distracted by work and email. It may be the caffeine, but cafes are so stimulating to my creativity. I love being around others. There's always an opportunity to eavesdrop, and my Muse is sooooooo curious about people and what they're doing. Half the time I want to walk around polling people, asking them what they're doing. But I must remain focused! Cafes give a warm fuzzy feeling, and when I leave I always feel that I've accomplished something. Great post! I love writing in cafes for many reasons.
