TNT 1: Notebooks galore
Good evening everyone (at least, it's evening where I am). Hope you're all well. Welcome to the first Tips and Tricks column! All future entries will be searchable by the "tips and tricks" tag. Members, if you have an idea for a TNT discussion, feel free to PM it to us!
Allons-y!
I like to scribble. My current notebook has several pages that go on in messy longhand. When I was younger, I had my own typewriter and used that to hammer out my work. But to share writing on the internet, I have to type it on my computer, and for this I use OpenOffice: it has very convenient folders. I sometimes use WordPad if I'm in a hurry. I don't like Microsoft Word because it continually eats my work (and corrects my spelling). Recently a friend of mine bought Liquid Story Binder, and I saw another explaining how to use yWriter. Both seem very satisfied with their respective writing programs. So, what do you think about these programs? Which one(s) do you use? And where do you prefer to write, in notebooks, or on keyboards?
Share away :-)

and whenever I get a new one I get all excited, thinking longhand is going to change me forever.
*facepalm* I DO THIS TOO. ahahaha.
It's a different set of muscles to write than type; my forearms get so tired when I write. I am glad to be writey-ambidextrous because otherwise I could not survive classes. Maybe I should practice over the summer to get my writing arms in shape? That seems so weird. Obvsly I should do it, then. :D

Why is that?? I always think writing it out in a notebook is going to create EPIC PROSE and it's always worse then when it's typed! XD
Hee you should! So you don't have that weird feeling in September when you go to write in class and it feels weird because you haven't picked up a pen all summer. Was that just me? :P
