Re: Writing thread

I'm debating buying myself a cheap laptop or desktop so I can write fic on something other than my ancient dying phone. I told myself I could only justify a new computer if I went to grad school, but in practice that's meant using my phone for pretty much everything for the last six years.

A couple weeks ago, I emailed myself the ridiculous note I'd been writing all the fic for my newest fandom into and pasted it into a word document on a library computer.

It was over 40 single-spaced pages long. It's grown a lot since then.

Rewriting and editing it is a pain in the ass, and I keep worrying I'll accidentally select and delete big chunks of fic and not notice until it's too late.

But it's still a dumb reason to buy a whole new computer, even a cheap one. (My most recent computer is old enough to vote.)

Maybe I should set more realistic goals for myself than grad school. Like if I buy a computer just for word-processing, I actually have to post fic on my Ao3 account instead of only anon on kinkmemes. Especially since even my kinkmeme fills are gen.

Well, I support you buying a cheap laptop because writing will be easier, plus you might be able to use it watch streaming TV/ YouTube/ whatever as well. Plus, a lot of life admin stuff is often easier on a computer vs a mobile (as in filling in forms etc).

BUT if you don't want to do that, and your phone has bluetooth, you may be interested in buying a cheap bluetooth enabled keyboard. That way you can still write fic on your notes app, and still not have to lug a laptop around, but have the ease of writing with a keyboard instead of on your phone's touch screen. And that's an outlay of like $30 vs a few hundred.

I also recommend using your Google drive pages app to write. You do need internet connectivity to access and save changes to your document, but it allows you to format in a much easier way than your notes app. Plus you can do word counts/ page counts etc. So a much smaller chance of deleting big chunks of your fic!

I don’t think that’s a dumb reason to buy a new computer. If you can afford it, I say go for it. I once bought a new keyboard just because it was pretty and made this awesome clickety-clack sound when typing.
