I too, so enjoy your work. Thank you for giving me an opportunity to dream and escape (which seemingly is more necessary...sigh). I am hoping you'll share your work place set up. PC or MAC? Desktop or laptop? Are there any software writing programs you particularly like? I am setting up my office to take my amateur writing more seriously, but am very green as to what "tools" might be useful. Thank you, Erica...

Hi Nancy,
Well, I'm a Mac laptop Scrivener gal who writes best in short, concentrated bursts in places that don't have internet, but I'm the first to tell you that everyone does it differently. I know people who only write long-hand, others who stand at desks. Some need perfect quiet, others need background noise. One of the side benefits of writing is that you get to figure out who YOU are. What makes the writing flow? Just pay attention and trust yourself. It has nice benefits for the rest of your life, too!
