  1. Sat down to type 54 minutes ago. I have since written the word "Owlowiscious", and I am not convinced I have spelt it correctly. This is roughly one word per hour. At this rate, I will finish an average 1200-word chapter in... fifty days!

    1. @gherkinmon Have you considered using some distraction-free writing software?

      1. @ceruleanspark Not yet. Give me half an hour to Google it.

          1. @ceruleanspark I have a Mac. I cannot run this software!

            1. @gherkinmon In that case: http://gottcode.org/focuswriter/ or http://www.codealchemists.com/jdarkroom/

              1. @ceruleanspark My actual reason for not wanting software like this is because I would just as likely put my computer down and wander off to the piano or something.

                1. @gherkinmon Where do you live? I can get a cattle prod and just jab you with it when you get distracted, if you'd prefer.

                  1. @ceruleanspark The fact that we are both !midlandsbronies makes this a frighteningly real possibility. Also: I didn't know you were into that kind of thing.

                    1. @gherkinmon So....Watch out!

          1. @nvrrmbr Why is that a problem?

            Sunday, 07-Aug-11 19:11:17 UTC from web
            1. @gherkinmon Because Word is Word. It's very... Distracting.

              1. @nvrrmbr How so?

                1. @gherkinmon It's Word. There's no zen. No peace.

                  1. @nvrrmbr Zen and peace are overrated, and to prove my point I am going to end this with SO MANY exclamation marks!!!!!!!!!!!!

                    1. @gherkinmon I can't argue with that many exclamation marks!
