It’s National Pencil Day and yes, it seems like an odd day to celebrate but I’m going to share a secret with you. I absolutely love using a pencil when I’m working out a plot problem or doing a very quick outline for a new book. Even though I do 95% of my writing on my laptop, there is something about the feel of the pencil scratching across the paper that is very satisfying and seems to open up my brain. Weird, right? Actually, my daughter writes all her stories in longhand first and then puts her stories into her computer. Everyone has their own way to write. That’s why I tell people in my workshops that there is no wrong way to write except one: Not writing! LOL! Hope everyone has a lovely Saturday!
