Interesting — I hadn’t thought about the idea that Macs can empower creativity. That’s one of the best reasons I’ve ever heard for using a Mac!

I need to take a Mac for a “test drive” for a few days. That seems to me to be a great way to figure out if it’s a good investment in one’s writing career.

Anyone got a Mac I can borrow?

Invest in your writing. What I mean by that is that the more you write, the more experience you get, the harder it is to give up the ghost.

When you write often, especially in something like a blog, you have the evidence of your investment right at your fingertips. It’s as easy as looking at your archive.

Karen, thanks for the Harvest tip. I hadn’t heard of that way to track time and stay focused! If you want to write about it here on Quips & Tips, I’d be happy to have you as a guest writer

Mary — congratulations on coming out of the closet as a real writer! That’s so important — and I think it’s a continal process. Sometimes I don’t feel like a real writer…and I have to remind myself of how far I’ve come in my writing career. Hold on to your accomplishments, no matter how small.

Thanks for all your comments,
Laurie
