For discussion: Do you have particular writing tools you rely on? A particular program, a certain type of pen, a website? What do they help you do?

Got 300 words on my big bang, hopefully there'll be more later on tonight.

For handwriting fic and everything else too I use frixion pen because they have a little eraser on the end and the ink is eraseable. Slight downside is that they're £2.49 for 1 and £5 for a pack of 3 but they are really good and there's a good choice of colours.

For typing I use Jarte because of the option to change the background colour from white, which helps with my visual stress. I also use texthelp but that's a specialist software for dyslexics.
I do sometimes use the word2go program on my phone but only when I know I'll have not computer access for a couple of days.

Yay on those 300 words!

I might have to look out for those pens; they sound good! Though I hardly do any hand-writing these days, partly b/c it's so much slower for me, partly b/c of RSI-type issues.

I've never thought about the background color when I type (though I notice background colors for reading webpages, so I don't know why!). Maybe I should tinker w/that.

They are good pens :)

I have to use a background colour when I'm typing otherwise the white hurts my eyes too much.
