All righty then. Just finÂished up a cool conÂverÂsaÂtion with a dude that I have to meet with later to figÂure out some stuff.
Now, I guess I’ll keep plugÂging away at writÂing, nay, testÂing Write or Die, a timÂing and wordÂcount interÂface that helps focus your writÂing by imposÂing limÂitÂaÂtions and conÂsequences on your writing.
I’ve not bumped into the conÂsequences yet, but I have bumped into the limitations.
- it’s hard to spellcheck.
— no othÂer formatÂting comÂmands, it’s all about getÂting the words out of your head and on the screen
— Oh, hey, the screen turned red when I paused for thought. Cool.. Just to let me know that I shouldÂn’t do that, I guess.
Now then, this test is only a 200 wordÂcount test, and I set a time limÂit of 10 minutes to write it.
At this point, includÂing the 3 minutes of conÂverÂsaÂtion that occured after I launched the app, but before I starÂted actuÂal writÂing, I’m at 159 words and about 4 minutes remainÂing. I should be able to make the deadline…maybe.
Wow, one thing I do notice; all this conÂcenÂtrated writÂing is causÂing me to notice my wrists. UsuÂally my writÂing style is more thoughtÂful and casÂuÂal, but right now I’m just spewing…oh, hey, I just made 200 words, with about 3 minutes to spare.
Well, I won’t edit this too much; I’ll just paste it in as is, and let it be an example of work creÂated with Write or Die.
After writÂing using this tool, here’re some thoughts:
— Yes, I’d use it again
— My wrist is kinda sore right now
— It could use some addiÂtionÂal editÂing / layÂout features
— AnyÂthing writÂten using Write or Die *must* be edited…typing spew is not good reading
26 seconds left — copy to clipÂboard just in case 🙂 SavÂing now.
