Oh, how you make me long to be in that wine bar! My closest fanfriend, isiscolo is actually not in Colorado at all right now; she's on her sailboat in the Bahamas.
But I am drinking wine right now; a toast to you both!
I don't think the direct-to-digital writing makes or breaks my story. Me, I've learned to skip the printed step, mostly because I deal with the digital world 8 hours a day at work. I'm used to direct typing, and I use it when I can, even though I have to make sure I have these Stupid! Reading! Glasses! at every place I sit and read. I'm also more likely to make the little needed word-tweaks when I'm skimming the story for the umpteenth read-through. But the printed version worked well enough for Waters of March. All the shmoopiness (oh, the spellcheck won't like that word) was caused by other reasons. And my very first HP fanfic was written in a tent at 10,000 feet A.S.L. and was a true compulsion to complete.
