I discovered Ommwriter, while reading this article by @supermoonman. A Mac-only application, Ommwriter is all about removing distractions and bringing its users back into FOCUS. I’ve got to tell you, I’m loving this text editor. Here’s a list of  my favorite features:

1. Full-screen Scenery

The text editor takes up the entire screen with a background of your choosing. Get yourself in the zone. No more menu bars, no more docks, no more pop-ups, just you, your words, and a pretty picture.

There are only 3 backgrounds to choose from which is both good and bad. Bad because you’ll have to settle if you don’t like any of the the 3, but good because you won’t spend coprious amounts of time picking the “perfect” background to work to.

My favorite? Hand’s down, the gorgeous snowy landscape. Check it out:

2. Mood Music

I don’t work well to music, normally. In fact, I’m the trouble-maker who asks her co-workers to turn down their music. But after using Ommwriter, I realized it’s music with words and heavy rhythmic beats that distract me. The 7 music options in Ommwriter are more like soothing sounds. I found the music not only easy, but surprisingly helpful in keeping me focused while I write. Oh, and the best part, you can turn the music off, if it’s just not working for you.

3. Keyboard sounds

When I watched the intro-video, I wasn’t sure I’d like hearing a  sound every time I typed a letter. There are 7 sound options, and I picked one that reminded me of water drops. I was surprised how much I enjoyed it and it helped me concentrate on what I was writing. The best part? When you’re on a roll you can literally hear yourself typing to a beat.

My only suggestion? It’d be nice if you could add backgrounds of your own.

Got some serious writing to do? I highly recommend giving Ommwriter a try. It’s simple, it’s free, and it’s inspiring. Go ahead, watch the 2 minute  intro-video.

So, in the words of human3rror, catch the vid after the jump…
