Rather, if I just stick with water or club soda for the duration of the flight, my entire body focuses on the writing and nothing else. It’s not because I don’t like airplane food, (United’s biz class meals are actually decent,) but rather, if I fill myself up on the meal, I’ll get logy and kind of blah, and my ADHD will go through the roof. If I’m in business class, there’s always food, but I don’t eat on planes. I discovered it about three years ago – I can’t imagine writing on anything else. Each keystroke has a faint click, and it can play soothing music in the background as well. It blocks out all system notifications as well, so all you have in front of you is your words. Unlike Word or Pages, it doesn’t have a lot of fancy menus or tools, it’s simply a white page on a stunning snow scene background, that takes up your entire screen. Ommwriter is essentially a blank canvas for your writing. If you haven’t done any writing on Ommwriter, you don’t know what you’re missing: I put on my headphones and launch Ommwriter. I turn off the WiFi and leave it off the for entire flight. Once we’ve leveled off, I pull out my laptop and plug it in. It’s ridiculously refreshing, and I find that it wakes me up into a great headspace for writing. Sounds crazy, but there’s logic in it – Studies have shown that the forward takeoff motion of the plane (specifically, the extra g-force exerted on your body) make you extra tired. So if you sit down and immediately pass out, you can grab a 30 minute or so nap until you’re at cruising altitude.

If you’re going this route, I recommend you pick up the ThermaPAK HS15A HeatShift Laptop Cooler for your laptop – Keeps your laptop (and more importantly, your lap) cool throughout the flight.Įither way, here’s how I write: Feel free to to share it on Twitter by clicking here! Doing this protects your computer from being squashed when Tourist McTourface slam-reclines his seat back as far as humanly possible, right into your knees, and your screen. The key is to keep the laptop on your lap, as opposed to the tray-table.

It’s a free download – Give it a shot.Įven when flying domestically, coach isn’t that bad for writing. (It’s why Apple created Night Shade for the iPhone…) But the added bonus of flux is that for me, at least, writing on a dark plane with it is so much more comfortable on the eyes than without it. It’s designed mostly for people working at night, so the screen doesn’t screw with your sleeping ability. It takes the harsh lighting of the Macbook and makes it a little more pleasing to the eye.

On international flights, I’m fortunate to be able to travel business class, which lets me plug in my computer and not have to worry about my battery dying, but the Macbook Air has a pretty decent battery life regardless, and if I lower my screen brightness, I can usually get at least seven hours out of a full charge, if not more.įlux is an amazing little extension that… “dampens” the screen – I guess that’s the best way to describe it.

    Armed with the right tools, I can turn almost any airplane into my own private writing studio, that allows me to focus, block out all distractions, and get words down on paper. Yesterday’s flight, United flight 86 from Newark to Shanghai, was no different than the majority of flights I take. Then, about nineteen years ago, I discovered business travel. Writing is something I’ve always loved to do, but being ADHD, it’s difficult to find ways to do it that allow me to enter my zone of focus, without being constantly interrupted by something shiny, the Internet, a text, or a cat.

    Yesterday was a good day for me, as I was able to write three chapters of Faster Than Normal: The Book, which is scheduled for publication by Tarcher Perigee in October of 2017. From blog posts to books, almost every piece of written content I produce is written on a plane. One of the nice things about flying close to 250,000 miles per year, is that I get the majority of my work done in transit.
