with stories it's usually keyboard, but if im doing poetry its usually pen and paper, because i find it easier...sometimes i plan stories on paper, like characters and plots and stuff
When one door closes...another one opens...I think I've gone through ALL the doors in the world...
You say tomatoe i say tomato...?
I say potatoe you say potato...?
I say date you say...? Yes
I usally write everything in pen, enless I'm on this site. The most I've written is 50 pages by hand. To forever and was messy, but I could write almost any where and all day.
me???? well, I use whatever I can find. normally it means computer, but at school without a laptop i use pencil/pen and paper. when i get home i transfer what i wrote to my computer. lol.... guess i can type faster than i can write, which a lot of people can do nowadays.
Hello? Hello? Oh, it's just me. Nobody in particular, and I'm wondering how you are. Good? That's good. Bye!
Hmm...Typically I write in black or blue pen...pencils wear down too easily when one's in a writing mood. Then, once corrections have been made, I transfer it to computer (keyboard), to provide further editing.
But, I've often been caught writing in colored pen, primarily for corrections. Or, distinguishing between speakers in dialog, if I'm just jotting ideas on paper and don't feel like describing their tones, emotions, face, etc.
For example:
“I’m the oopsie baby! The oopsie baby!”
“Well, at least you are a smart oopsie baby. You know that you are unwanted. With that knowledge, you can get yourself a better life,”
“I’m the oopsie baby! An oopsie baby is hated not loved! She’s hated me since I was born. What part of that do you not understand? No, Paula, you cannot drink your father’s coffee.”
Instead of:
Kaj screamed at breakfast, “I’m the oopsie baby! The oopsie baby!”
“Well, at least you are a smart oopsie baby. You know that you are unwanted. With that knowledge, you can get yourself a better life,” Charles said moving his coffee mug away from their 9 year old daughter’s reach.
“I’m the oopsie baby! An oopsie baby is hated not loved! She’s hated me since I was born. What part of that do you not understand? No, Paula, you cannot drink your father’s coffee.”
I usually use the keyboard, but if there is not keyboard near, definitely pen. I don't trust myself with pencils. I'm such a horrible perfectionist that I end up erasing everything when I write in pencil. Pens force me to just write it down.
I immensely prefer the keyboard because
1) my handwriting sucks (no, really, it does)
2) I am a very fluid typist, and I type, really, really fast, so my ideas have a quicker outlet
3) I can't upload handwritten stuff here! sheesh 4) if it's handwritten, there's a good chance I'll loose it on my desk (hazard area)
5) I have so many notebooks I wouldn't know where to look.
For reports, I also generally use the computer except for requests for handwritten essays or whatever...
I really need to improve my handwriting. Really. Maybe I should start writing a bit by hand.
I use most anything. I use the computer when I can, my notebooks, my journal, and I've also got a typewriter. My computer is choked and overgrown with files, and my sock drawer no longer has room for socks, as it has become a sanctuary for deceased stories and bad poetry, typed and penned alike.
My handwriting is atrocious. Typing is always the easier option for me, for the same reasons as Sumi.

I always write it out on paper before I type it. Just to get it perfect. And I use pencil so if I make a mistake, I can erase it. So ya..
What if I loved you, would you care? What if I left one day, would you care? What if I never came back, would you care? What if I died, would you care?
but hey sometimes I run out of pencils haha
