The Blogging Process
I've discovered something interesting in my very young blogging career: It is hard for me to simply sit at the computer screen and hammer and entry out. Don't get me wrong, it's not hard for me to type at the computer...it's what I do for a living most days of the week in my "real job."
Instead, for this, I grab pen and paper and write before I type. There's something about the tactile sensation of the pen and paper that helps me order my thoughts better than a sterile keyboard does. As such, I write out my entire blog entry in a little notebook, and then transcribe from notebook to keyboard. I do the same thing when writing fiction, both for EVE and for other projects.
