What do you need to write, and what are you writing on this year? I like to have a cup of hot chocolate (or a mocha,) ice water, and my fingerless gloves. I have written on an AlphaSmart in years past, but this year I'll be writing on my nifty new netbook!

I usually write on my laptop, but a few months ago it started acting up and now I can't count on it to work when I need it. This year I'll be using it if it will start up, but if it won't start up then I'll be using a good old notebook and pen at the write-ins and retype them on my desktop later.
Hot chocolate is my favorite drink while writing along with Diet Dr. Pepper. I don't really like food because it's hard to eat and type at the same time!
If I'm at home, I really like using my heated blanket and playing some soft (non-vocal) music in the background.

I have a laptop that is dying a slow and painful death (we can't afford to let it go yet) but I'm hoping that my birthday wish will come true this month and I'll have a "nifty new netbook" (I really liked that one). I live on Diet Coke all the time, but especially when I'm writing and hot cocoa. Dried fruit and rice crackers are my fuel and instrumental music as my background.

I have an "Acer Aspire One" and I LOVE the thing! =D

I'm using my netbook for this. I have to have massive quantities of coffee and snack food. I think that may be part of my problem today. Not enough coffee. Will have to start carrying a vat of it with me everywhere.
Happy Noveling!

Jeeze, all I have is a bottle of water and a quiet house. I write while hubby is at work. Sure wish I had a laptop, writing long hand is too slow for me, drives me nuts.

Uh, maybe what you guys need is less distractions from snacks and such.
Just a thought.

Oh, i definitely need less distractions. Hopefully I can spend a day or two uninterrupted and get back on track. My word count is HORRIBLE so far. :(

HA! I have a bountiful selection of distractions to choose from - school, the kids, rehearsals, the two craft shows I''m doing this month! :) Funnily enough, this works better for me - I can work on one project while procrastinating on another. Ah, the joys of "Cross-procratination!" ;)
(Actually, on of the Wrimos who did the Q &A's last year called it "Creative Cross-Pollination," which I also loved.)
