Writing can be hard enough--

Getting & Using the Technology shouldn't be.

 
 
I was sitting at a writer's conference, listening to someone talk about what they'd paid for writing software -- you know, the usual stuff:  simple word processing, spreadsheet, anti-virus, editing, story tracking.....
 
This led to another conversation about computers -- laptops vs. desktops, name brand vs. generic, and the ever popular debate over Mac vs. PC.  Which led to another discussion; this one about websites, blogs, webrings, web publishing, and publicity in general.

 

I'm an Educational Technologist by trade; a storyteller and writer by desire. I spend my days working with the same technology questions, for teachers and students.

 
It was pointed out that I should be sharing this ongoing learning about technology with writers... folks who could benefit from "no cost" solutions to their everyday technology hassles. So, here we go*...

ONE THING -- The Technology shouldn't get in the way of the Writing.
