Definitely smoke signals. Can be crafted out of just about anything you have that’s green, a little bit of flame, and one’s cloak. No better choice if you need to send a message across vast distances. Quill and ink was a close second though, very transportable. I’ve got a couple make of hawk feathers from my travels.

I feel there is an option I am contractually obligated to pick my name being quill...

I like fountain pens the most

Pen for writing notes/drafts bc it flows smoother than pencil and makes me not focus on mistakes

personally, it's very shocking to see what happened to the standard pencil... no love for a good ol' no. 2?

I wish I could type everything. Writing by hand just takes way too long!

When it comes to writing, definitely typing on the computer for bouncing around to different sections of a story and quicker than a pen or pencil. But on the editing side, a red pen is my go to.
