Eleven things I couldn’t have written my book without.. at Creative Disruption

"You need to capture an enormous amount of information (but not too much) and you need to knit it all together into (in my case) a single 70,000 word document. To do this – you need tools, and they have to work.

If you have the luxury of just sitting down at the same desk on the same machine to write everyday, things can be relatively simple. But, I had to do all of this while on the move – working on a number of different laptops and desktops, Mac and PCs. So, I needed tools that would work across different platforms, and offline (I spend a lot of time on trains).
Above all, for someone like myself who has an infinite ability for displacement activity, I needed things that just worked, and that I couldn’t spend hours ‘optimising’.

To call this ‘a system’ would imply far too much organisation; and I have no proof that the result of all of this is a decent book – but this is what I relied on to get the manuscript finished – and that was enough of a milestone for me."
