Seriously. I'd forgotten how much I love writing longhand - for plotting, it's my preferred format. So today, after starting and deleting four files (yep, it takes me a while), I abandoned Puck and grabbed a notebook. Now, I have the bones of the plot summary for Snow and nearly a page and a half of notes. In about 45 minutes. And, well, it feels really good.

I'll keep writing today during the slow times, I think - although I have an afghan to work on as well. I'm looking forward to a nice, quiet, slow night.

Talk to everyone later.

I get hung up on how the page looks - I'm very anal that way. And the pen and paper are very important to me. It's weird, but it lets me see more of what I'm doing when I do it longhand, if that makes sense.

No, I can understand that perfectly. It may be the same mental process that makes it easy for me to edit a hard copy and almost impossible to edit from a computer screen.
