I have spent most of 2024 traveling for work. It all started in the back half of 2023 but really exploded this year. Because of all that traveling, I've been slowly refining the gear I take with me on planes and the occasional train. Fortunately, as a writer, I can get away with not carrying a lot around with me. One thing I need to have is a writing machine.
A traditionalist would say I need a laptop. The problem with laptops on a plane is that I'm a bigger guy, and sadly, I'm usually relegated to economy seating. Those two things do not go together well, so a laptop is a non-starter for me. However, on a couple of recent trips to California and New York City, I discovered a great combination of technology that allows me to get some work done without having to pray that the person in front of me won't lean their seat back.
