I used to be the same. I'm a very visually oriented person and I could add flair to how I structured the placement of the words so that I would remember the inflection and emphasis I intended. My problem was that it was slow. By the time I got to my next thoughts, they were many times lost or diluted. Out of self-defense, I learned to type really, really fast. Now I can keep up... most of the time. But I have lost some of that flair. I can put it in with spacing, bold, italic, etc. but it slows me down and distracts. I need something that just reads my mind and my intentions. :-)
Since I've written this, I seem to do more typing on my laptop than on actual paper. I can type fast so I can type my thoughts out faster than writing it down. :)

Excellent, I like to learn about other people's creative methods and processes!
Thanks Mark. It's interesting to see other people's styles and how they go about writing.
