my pen casts words cross
pale blue lines creating worlds
oh my pen my wand
I love the feel of my pen on the page. I've always written by hand. Is it my age? I think not. I'm not alone in this. The pen is gaining on iPad, laptop, desktop for the writer on the run, who scribbles their first ideas, outlines, characterizations on a notebook in their pocket, a napkin...
I carry my journal everywhere and currently am jotting down character traits, locations, ideas, possible plots for my wip.
The beauty of writing first drafts by hand, is when I type it up later - voila - second draft. Gotta love it.
