Someday soon (if it hasn't already happened) a book will be published that was written and edited entirely on a phone/tablet with a touch keyboard. (lemmy.ca)

I can't even imagine writing long form on a touch keyboard. But with a lot of people eschewing laptops/desktops for their mobile devices, it's really just a matter of time.

How about on a phone via messaging: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-01-31/behrouz-boochani-wins-australias-richest-literary-prize/10768688

Boochani wrote his entire book on his mobile phone and sent it in bits and pieces over years to translator Omid Tofighian via Whatsapp.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
