Eva’s Byte #306 - Here, There, and Everywhere

The title of a love ballad from the 1966 Beatle album, Revolver, pretty much sums up the location of my reading glasses. Pairs of spectacles in various strengths are strategically placed in every room, without exception.

My optometrist suggested 1.0 for night driving and television viewing.

I peer at my computer screen through a pair of 2.0 lenses.

If I’m reading, 2.75 suffices.

I nab a pair in the 3.25 range when I work with the fine print of crossword puzzles.

In the capacity of writer, I’m drafting my Contemporary work in progress using Times New Roman print style at a 16-point font. My document is zoomed 90 percent.

I can see my way clear—literally as aforementioned, and literarily as I envision the sequence of events in Chapter 68 of Part 4.

For sure, writers need imaginative vision to foresee how their story will unfold from start to finish. Also, of great importance, writers must have keen eyesight for proofreading and editing their draft pre-publication.

Whatever you set your sights on, may twenty-twenty foresight showcase your finished product in the best light.

*My sincere appreciation if you’ve read this far.

Eva’s Byte #509 – Distractions

Setting aside noble obligations which tend to pack a punch with stress and anxiety, distractions also interfere with a writer’s daily output. Generically speaking, housework and grocery shopping.

Despite being away from my computer for the aforementioned, or any other distraction, my writer’s mind is still at work turning phrases and channeling ideas.

From my perspective, distractions are beneficial for recharging and for gaining new insights. Recalling the typewriter scene in The Shining: “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy”.

In the capacity of a writer plotting along my Contemporary work in progress, I’m drafting chapter 9 (1160 words thus far).

*May each of us embrace life’s mundane and pleasant distractions as food for thought.

My sincere appreciation to you for reading this far.
