All this week RWA/NYC Members are
sharing
their tips and tricks for writing more, better & faster.
Happy Writing!
As far as writing faster,
what’s worked for me recently is this: the Scrivener app installed on my cell
phone and a Belkin Universal keyboard. I switched from Word to Scrivener
software a few years ago. I love the way I can now color-code scenes for POV and
move them around simply by dragging and dropping files. And when the Scrivener
app came out recently, I was all over it for the portability.
No more having to open an
email or Evernote file that I then had to import into the correct spot in my
manuscript (though I sometimes still do this). The Belkin Universal keyboard
has sometimes been temperamental interfacing with my iPhone software when it
gets upgraded, but currently still functions well. I bought this particular
keyboard because it works with multiple types of devices, and its open cover
serves as a built-in stand. The keyboard is so light, thin and small, I can
drop it into my purse and forget about it. I even bought a felt carrying case
for it.
Now, when I’m stuck in the
car, waiting for one kid or another to be done with soccer practice, I can
easily add to my WIP.♥
