Maggie

Maggie asked Melanie Dickerson:

Hey, Melanie! How many hours do you spend writing a day? Because my hand seems to get really tired like after forty, forty-five minutes. Also, will you ever be in Missouri?

Melanie Dickerson Hi, Maggie! I do all my writing on the computer. Writing longhand is bad for my carpal tunnel problem. (I wear a wrist brace when I type, which helps tremendously.) I learned to write my first draft on the computer years ago before I started The Healer's Apprentice. But I do have friends who write their first draft by hand.
Also, I don't do much traveling, and rarely do book signings anymore. So I'm not sure . . .
