Funny, how I seem to be drawn to the subject I know nothing about or,
to be precise, to the _subject line_... :)

I also used to draft text roughly on paper first before using a word

While I cannot imagine myself _ever_ learning enough to manipulate a
'puter program to design patterns, I used the beast to compose text on
from the moment I realized that corrections -- erasing/replacing
phrases and shifting whole paragraphs -- was easier done on screen than
on paper. From the time I started sending patterns for publication,
I've always composed on-screen, then printed out to proofread and
marked the "iffy" spots (the ones I managed to catch, that is <g>) ,
then entered the corrections into the original text.
I do take hand-written notes on the pattern's developmental progress as
I work on it, but they tend to be so untidy that even I have trouble
deciphering them :)
