Absolutely. I often do the same thing, except not digitally, as I usually write everything in a notebook first, and then copy it onto the PC and change/fix as I type. If I like something from the handwritten version but it doesn't "fit", I still have it, and I can go back and look at it later, and see if it can be used elsewhere.

Jeez... hard to believe this thread is over ten years old. And the story I started it with is even older than that. I started this story in 2002, as a freshman in college. I've plugged away at this thing over the years and now I've finally brought this story to a close.

Thanks, AR! I am already working out the next chapter, and I'm nearly finished with the next chapter of LIS, as well. You guys are going to LOVE it!

PS, it's a challenge trying to get around to reading everyone's fics (and I hate not being able to start at the begining of a series), but I'm trying... Hopefully I'll get around to everyone's eventually. o.0 |

Understandable, but as I don't even have a smart-phone, much less a tablet or anything portable to hook a thumb-drive to, I still use my old-fashioned notebook. That, and I enjoy the FEEL of writing by hand. I have an extra-large purse just so I can carry my notebook with me, and it works really well, since I don't carry much else except part of my work uniform and a bottle of pain relievers (for the inevitable headaches from dealing with the public on a daily basis) anyway. At home, I save everything directly to my hard drive, and also occasionally to a thumb-drive, too. Especially since I (yes, still) use MS Works (8.0) as my writing program instead of Word. Hate Word with a passion- will NEVER use it!

Oh, believe me, I'd LOVE to have one- it's just an expense I can't afford now. As it is, I wouldn't even have the PC I do now if my other half hadn't come into a small inheritance about two and a half years ago. My previous one was so outdated and slow it was practically on its last legs, so I was forced to upgrade- and was fortunate to have the windfall that allowed me to get something that I could get a lot of use out of and which had the capabilities I wanted. But though I thought about going netbook or similar at the time, it wouldn't have been practical, since I work in a fast-food place and personal security is hard to come by. (Read- I wouldn't trust someone not to make off with or damage my precious new toy....) I'm safer using a desk-top at home, and the notebook to write in at work. At least that way if it comes up missing or damaged, I haven't lost an expensive machine I can't replace.
And besides, the tower makes a really cool place to show off some of my TMNT toys- I've currently got a stand-off going between my 2014 movie turtles and the Nick Foot soldiers, Mousers, Bebop, Tiger Claw, Slash, and 2014 movie Shredder! (It's a little crowed up there, but some of them are on top of my scanner....) Casey and Metelhead sit on my speakers, LOL. (And Nick Splinter is in front of my monitor training the Nick turtle-kids.)

*L* Neither laptop nor notebook provide ample display space, so there is that for the dektop. (Mine's covered in ponies. *L*) And I seem to have dropped some activities (like Facebooking and checking the news) that were pretty habitual on the desktop since I shifted over to using the laptop. Not always a good thing, but it has allowed me to focus on my writing more. (or, it lets me goof around writing posts on forums... )
Also, it just sucks that people are so opportunistic as to prey on one another like that. But that's neithe here nor there. |

LOL, maybe when I find a laptop or netbook that's got a TG memory to store all my pics (mostly TMNT), music, videos, D&D PDF's, play Skyrim without a lag, AND write and net-surf, I'll go to that. Til' then, I like my desktop!

Hi, everyone. As a few of you might remember, I began writing a fanfic back in August. But haven't updated it since September. Well, today I've updated it for the first time in almost 4 months. Hope you enjoy it.

Read and reviewed. Great work. Raph using the word "retarded" would have caught me off guard just a little, but then back in the 80s a lot of kids shows said that (I remember one episode of Terrahawks using the word)

I have decided after much thought to just bin "Cheap Seats With The Clearest View" and rebuild it from scratch. It was becoming far too convoluted and hard to keep track of. I aim for the revision to be kept much simpler.

Well, sometimes you have to do that, Zar. Best of luck on it. Read your stuff, Duckie and Machi. Congrats on getting your fic done, Machi. That has to be one heck of an accomplishment.

No problem, and I wasn't offended at all, just a little "woah"
