The keyboard is my journal.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I love playing. The keyboard is my journal.
Not intending to be funny: I sit at the keyboard, put my fingers on the keys and go. To me, it's the real secret of writing. Put yourself in front of the screen or the blank sheet of paper and get to work.
Because of the nature of my brand, it's so important our readers know it really is me behind my keyboard.
I find a lot of writing happens when you're not actually at the computer. So I carry a notebook.
At least half my writing time is spent researching. So for every hour I'm actually clicking on the keyboard, I'm spending another hour trying to figure out some tiny detail I need answered.
I have a notebook with me all the time, and I begin scribbling a few words. When things are going well, the walk does not get anywhere; I finally just stop and write.
For my stand-up, I always have my notebook with me and if something strikes me, I'll write it down.
I'm not a big gadget guy. When I write, I'll do the whole thing by hand, and then I'll put it into the computer.
I wish we hadn't used all the keys on the keyboard.
I often write in pencil on paper and then type up later. It's much quicker than using a keyboard.
