It's interesting to see your view on "inventing" writing as we come from two different generations. I find the pen and paper convention restricting. I write very profusely, and currently next to me have on a self nearly a dozen spiral bound manuscripts of plays, short stories, full length novels (in various states of completion). I am in fact gearing up for this years NaNoWriMo for the sixth time. I will actually be writing a sequel to a completed entry I did 3 years ago. Google NaNoWriMo if that acronym is foreign, but I'm betting its not.<br /><br />When I have a laptop in my hands these fingers cannot stop clicking. I can churn out a 1000 words in just under 15 minutes if I am really cooking. On the flip side I couldn't see myself writing 100 with a pencil. Perhaps its just my pampered 21st century ways but I almost feel like my brain would work faster then my hands could handle. Like I was working with stone age tools. <br /><br />I free write with a laptop, outline, I even use a nifty little program to create brain webs which is what I assume you mean by clustering. I would be a hopeless writer without my little 2.4 pounds of netbook goodness.<br />(Shane)Wizardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09806256426204754266noreply@blogger.com
