I'll chime in -- even though I'm not doing Prep I have a few other writing goals for this month. I'm old and set in my ways, so I do all my writing on a laptop into MS Word. Sometimes I organize longer things in Excel. ...What? I'm not *that* old. Besides, my handwriting is utter crap unless I'm using block caps, which are slow to write. Typing on a phone keyboard is just as slow for me. I do use my phone, though; I, too, have Evernote set up (pretty sure I'm the one who told Brandiwynš¶ about it). I pay for it, which gives me multi-platform access so I can type, for example, to-do lists on my laptop and check them off with the more accessible phone app. My laptop is valuable to me for another reason; tab- and app-switching is much easier on an actual computer, with the alt+tab keyboard shortcut. So I'll have reference materials (usually Wikipedia pages because I'm lazy) in multiple windows, and alt+tab between them, Word, Evernote, and WDC as necessary. For blog entries (one of my ongoing projects is the daily blog), I just type directly into WDC. They're fast, less than an hour's work, and it's not the end of the world if I lose one, which happens only rarely.
