Writing and more

I write every day. Something. A blog. A story for class. An essay for a newspaper. Those are three of the things I've written in the last couple of weeks.

My writing routine is this. I wake up early and drink two espresso shots and write on my phone. Then I email the document to myself to convert it to a word document.

It works for me. With my back issues, I only sit at a computer at work or at home with a laptop desk. I remember when I was working on my chapbook, I wrote on my bed on my forearms typing. That was a ridiculous way to write. 

Comfort is key for me now. I type with one finger, yes I do, but I'm a quick scribe even with one digit doing the work.

I've also been working on a YA novel, which I'm also writing on my phone and saving in a draft version on my blog page as well as creating a one woman show, which I'm recording episode by episode, some of which I've released in short mini bonus content on my podcast.  

So I guess what I'm saying is that I'm finding new ways to write. To be productive and prolific in the limited amount of time I have. I would urge you to do the same. Find what works for you and just do it. And always remember, there's just this, and there's just now. So savor it.
