Nothing today, because technically I really really need to write that damn essay that's due in 10 hours. ... You can see how well that's going, given that I'm commenting here. -.-

I recently discovered FocusWriter, which is pretty excellent for getting rid of distractions. As for writing by hand: I used to write Only With My Fountain Pen, but then I forgot it one time and found that no, I really did not need it at all. I still prefer fountain pen or biro to felt tip or pencil or anything like that, though.
