It is Deadline City around here this past week and I’ve had my head down, writing. And when I haven’t been writing I am thinking about writing, and reading other people’s writing, and dreaming about writing. Since I’ve been doing that for awhile now, I’m happy to say that I’ve finally figured out what works for me.
- My best time for writing is in the morning.
- I must be sufficiently caffeinated.
- I usually sit at my desk, on my desktop computer, although I have been known to use my Chromebook in the family room.
- I use MS-Word. The font of choice is always Cambria 16.
I also don’t like to be disturbed while I’m writing, so when the family is home I shut the office door to keep the hubbub out. Unfortunately, this doesn’t always work. There’s always someone who wants to come in, interrupt, and hang out. Like this dood:
Sigh.
What are your writerly needs? I’d love to hear what you need to do in order to get some writing done!
