Pen and Paper
Your life without a computer: what does it look like? When I first started writing novels, I was about fifteen years old. I thought if I used the length of a spiral notebook, that would suffice. If it came down to that, I would be alright. I own a lot of notebooks and pens. When…

I never see these type of things coming, which make them even more grand. I swipe down to look at notifications, as I keep my iPhone on Personal, so only my boyfriend’s messages come through.
