AM Writing Necessities
- Two lamps and an overhead light (to stun myself awake)
- Big fleece robe and slippers over PJs
- Water in a tumbler on the desk, spiked with sole for maximum hydration (is this BS? Because I am on the bandwagon but am I wasting precious salt I could be eating??)
- Chapstick (doubles as hand salve if dry)
- Natural hand sanitizer (because I have a face-touching problem and I don't even want to think about how filthy my keyboard must be)
- Banana & caffeine (matcha during week; coffee on weekend)
- And, most importantly: laptop, note cards, scratch paper, Wifi so I can google ridiculous things (my actual necessities, not my make the magic happen necessities)
What are your necessities? Do they vary by day & time, or by writing project?
