HELLO THERE LOVELIES ♥

I need a bit of moral support right now, because I'm apparently completely useless figuring this out on my own.

It's the age old question; to handwrite or type?

The only thing that puts a spin on my situation is my job. I work from 8pm-4:30am at a ~CALL CENTER~. So, 8-12 we're normal busy but. . . those last four hours? Effing dead. Up to 10 minutes in between calls but it's not like I can have my laptop out but I feel like I'm wasting time if i'm not writing. :|

So um. If anyone has any thoughts or suggestions or other handwrite/not-handwrite struggle stories, speak up!

I handwrote for the first part of last year's NaNo, because I wanted to be able to write during classes.
Luckily, now that I'm in college, I have a lot more free time than class time, so I'll be writing solely via computer this year (at least I plan to.)

My advice: handwrite whenever you can't get to a computer, and type it up as soon as you can. You can even print out what you've already written so that you can keep track of where you are when you're writing by hand. Esp. if you don't want to write out all 50,000 words AND type them. Because you are correct...wasting those ten minute intervals would be a shame.
