What Works for You?
by Rosalind Foley on 02/24/12
We all have our little peculiarities. Writers are no exception. Not many can write in a coffee shop like J. K. Rowling. (Not many have the imagination of J. K. Rowling!) Some need a window to stare out of, while others want a blank wall. Silence, music, background noise affect us and require choices.
Tools and materials are important, too. Only a few diehards still write from scratch, longhand, with fountain or ball point pen. Whether used for composing or correcting, pens have to be comfortable in our hands. Not for me the fat, stubby ones , no matter how pricey. Give me a slender retractable Pilot, fine point with black ink.
As long as thoughts fly from the fingers, it doesn't matter if they come into the world on an Apple, a notebook or an IPad. What works for you?
