Hiya all, working on my 50k for this year's writing month. You're welcome to add me here if you like: https://writingmonth.org/~miguel/

This year I won't be using my Royal Futura 800 for my first draft like I usually do, I'll be using that $40 macbook pro I bought and restored just for this purpose. The second draft will be going through the Royal, though.

This year's story is different from my usual. I was challenged to step out of my Sci-Fi comfort zone, so I'm doing something entirely different!

Nice, I considered using Joplin as my writing tool this time around since I use it as my note-taking application, however I decided that I didn't want to use the same tool for my notes and my creative process. I have a different approach when it comes to different types of writing.

I'd be happy to do something with Obsidian if you're interested. I have a setup that works for me, which is local-first (Joplin is local-first, so I get it), especially since I tend to use local-first software. Same with Sendo (Neigsendoig) as well.

There's a good chance the two of us might not go pen and paper for a while.

I looked at Obsidian some years ago, and it really just didn't fit the way I work. When I found Joplin I got it set up so I have it everywhere (desktop, laptop, phone, tablet, etc.) with everything being secured and in my control...(ie, I don't use any third-party syncing service).

So, I think I'll just keep it the way I have it now, and use NovelWriter for working on my book(s).

novelWriter is a fantasic application, so I don't blame you for that.
