Optional Discussion Topic: Methods

Do you write on a schedule, every Tuesday evening from 7 until 8, while listening to Chopin? Saturday morning while the sun rises? In your favorite coffee shop on Friday evenings?

In only a specific location, on a specific device?

Do you write longhand with a fountain pen or a quill, then give it to your secretary to type? Do you bang it out on a vintage typewriter? Do you quickly spit out a few words on your phone? Do you scribble notes on the back of your hand? 

What methods work and don’t work for you?
