Writing can take many forms now a days. Some prefer pen and paper and others prefer word processors. I am curious what [email protected] uses for their own writing.

For me I have used Scrivener before but found it too powerful for my style of writing. I now find myself using Google docs since it can sync to so many places and I can write wherever I go. (If anyone has a FOSS Google docs alternative I am all ears)

So, [email protected], what is your software of choice? If you prefer pen and paper, what does your process look like?

    Pen and Paper would never have worked for me, I am so glad electronic typewriters and then computers became a popular thing. Hand writing in any form cramps my hand somewhat badly, probably related to my bad hand writing and poor small motor skills (larger hand-eye coordination is fine however)

      Strongly recommend trying a fountain pen instead of a rollerball or especially instead of a ballpoint. You don’t need to apply any pressure. Also, funny thing about fountain pens, people who use them typically observe that their handwriting improves over time :)
