I am a CIA writer and I do my writing longhand because I like writing when I am well half way through I do the draft on Computer I always use a pocket notebook for notes and I have a dictateing machine what is the best in the two to carry around for my notes.

Not a problem Darren. I just hope I have been of some help. We all have our own ways of working. It is a bit of trial and error at first to see what suits us and then just going with it.

I think it depends on the individual. I like to have my notebook. I never really took to using a dictaphone very well.
