We've been working on building a new house for the last 18 months or so--we are our own GC, so it is a long, painstaking task.  We are nearing completion though, and it is with that in mind that I am attempting to get more regularly into writing again.

I seem to have taken control of my carpal tunnel syndrome, through some low-level laser therapy and some significant workstyle changes--my vertical keyboard and mouse are my very best friends and I wouldn't trade them for anything!

All of this, and the switch to Dvorak (in which I am now very proficient) has made a world of difference in my wrists.  So much so that I can now do my writing on my iBook when I am out without aggravating my wrists.  The best thing about my iBook?  It's one of the older ones, with the color accents and can barely manage OSX.  It's a good workhorse for novel work, it can get on the internet if I need to do research (but is slow enough browsing that I am unlikely to use it for anything else).  It's solely a writing machine, that I can take wherever I go.  And the battery life isn't half bad, either.



So with all this, yes, the word count has changed, but I don't yet have the new count.  And I seem to have lost the link to update the counter.  So it looks like I have some work to do.
