Distraction Free Writing, Well Sort of

I got my new/used Alpha-smart and I’m loving it, I’m able to write without having the distractions, other than the distractions I bring on myself lol, I got some written but not much, I have gotten some things accomplished today, I took two bags of books to the library, sterilized, everything with Lysol, dropped my boom off to Rosanna the lady that runs the bookstore, went to Teresa’s, (The Mercantile) for a couple of things I needed for dinner tonight, came home, fixed dinner, but I definitely think I need to designate tomorrow a writing day! And now back to the word count though it’s certainly lackiing today!

I have never heard of one of those! What does it do?

It’s just an old word processor, a lot of authors are bringing them back because they don’t have all the distractions!

@Michellekidwell Oh! I see! That sounds interesting. It's always fun to see old things brought back to life!

@star_disgate Yes it is, you can write without the distractions of a laptop or iPad/Tablet!

That sounds familiar to me. Alpha Smart? Where have I seen that? Yes, those distractions can be so annoying, and I hope this helps. You had quite a busy day!

It was popular years ago, making a comeback now!

@Michellekidwell I realize that, but I still can't place where I've seen or may have used it. My mind is definitely going.

Thanks, I’ve been busy today, two loads of books dropped of, a few errands ran, dinner made, dishes done and now a little writing!

That looks like a really nice piece of technology. I had one similar to it years ago.
