2 Apps and 1 Notepad: Inside My Writer Brain
Every writer I have ever talked to or watched has one thing in common — they carry some sort of notebook with them all the time. Depending on what type of writer you are will dictate whether the notebook is physical or digital.

As a writer with a disability that affects my ability to write when on the go, I have to approach things a bit differently. My disability means I only have the use of one hand and cannot use the other in any usable way.

Google Keep is for when I am in the city and need to capture something. More often than not, it is going to be a quote or an idea that has come to me. I need to be able to record it to come back to later.
What I like about Google Keep is that you can colour-code notes, archive old notes and tag.
The main ways I use Google Keep:

- In bed, using Google…
