What I’m Working With

New projects abound.  I’ve got more ideas than I have time.  But the funny thing is, I’ve been using pen and paper more than I’ve used my beloved Mac lately.  Don’t know what that’s about, but the words have been flowing, and that is what we writers crave.
Here are a few pics of my favorite work tools- just cause.

Yes, I do use multiple notebooks.  Don’t judge me.
One is blue ink and one is black ink.  Duh.
