Back in the day when I didn't have a computer, I used to write everything longhand. You should see the stack of incomplete stories underneath my bed! Yikes! But, once I got one of these, I find writing difficult if not impossible unless it's done on a word processor or html editor. Could be that I like the way the words look on the screen, all professional like, as if it's already published or something. Inspiration comes more readily to me when my fingers can type it out at 70-80 WPM.
Concerning writer's block and temperature: I find that is totally true! We had a drought for the first half of the summer, and the heat was practically unbearable. Writing was pretty much out of the question, unless I wanted to faint on my keyboard...

And yes lmp! A thunderstorm would be the perfect way to fuel our first convention. Think of all the inspiration that could be discovered that day! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
