Why Do I Get Ideas When I'm Tired?
Lights out, house is quiet, I'm comfy under the blankets. And I start to write. In my head. I don't want to get up and put the ideas down. I want to sleep. Today's blog prompt on BlogHer was do you prefer a pen or computer to write? It took while, but now I prefer the computer. My handwriting is okay for the first paragraph or so, then it steadily goes downhill from there. Plus, my hand hurts when I write much. Also, I'm faster on my laptop.

I'm not sure why, maybe it goes back to when I started writing when there were no computers. Except the kind that took up a whole room. I'm a child of the 70's- clunky typewriters and correcting fluid. We were so excited in high school when we got self-correcting electric typewriters. Oops! Made a mistake. *...
