But yeah, if I really want to write, I just write it and then do research later (again) to be sure I'm not messing with a fable origin, getting names wrong, or putting Los Angeles in Kentucky.<br /><br />I do stare at the keyboard, not that I need to, it probably distracts my fingers from the correct keys; but I don't want my internal editor to be distracted by all the spelling errors that my rabid thoughts create. As long as I verify my fingers are on home row, I know something has to be readable in the re-read :)<br /><br />These are great tips.

Sometimes it helps to just take a walk and build up some ideas too - then, when you sit down to write, you're ready to go.Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10680066584646789184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8542683203952246031.post-84967098805599307352013-03-11T11:39:28.846-05:002013-03-11T11:39:28.846-05:00The Practice Room (link at my blog) is a great way...The Practice Room (link at my blog) is a great way to write solidly for one hour sans internet and then meet back to chat about your progress, or lack thereof. There are a variety of practice times and it's a great way to meet other writers and talk about writing. I usually go Monday nights. Having some great critique partners is also priceless :) mshatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06308916014310536449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8542683203952246031.post-32972554178096620552013-03-11T09:04:26.857-05:002013-03-11T09:04:26.857-05:00Pass on the shock collar!
