I love that we have one more thing in common! And yes - i edit throughout the process. I do some edits as I write, and some as I type. The bulk of the editing and the major overhauls get done after I get it typed. It’s faster to edit the typing than it is my handwriting.
Ah, I did a full editing pass on the handwritten copy, and made more on the fly edits when typing. I just scheduled the first two installments (oooh) and found more typos. Who knows if I got them all.
I never write by hand, apart from my morning pages obviously. I can hardly read my own handwriting these days, and with the morning pages this doesn't matter very much as they are in stream of consciousness mode anyway, best by hand, and I feel I don't have to read them afterwards.
I do my writing mostly speech-to-text, and Word is the only entity out there who thinks I speak American English. I tried many types of English, lot of options out there, but none caters to my German accent like English (USA). I'll never know why...
I write fiction by hand!
how did I not know this about you? Glad we a re twinsies in this respect also -- do you edit before you type it up, during or after?

I’ve tried. It can’t understand me, probably because my accent is neither American or British enough.
