How to Construct an Operating Vade Mecum.

a) You need a notebook or set thereof.
b) A room of one’s own is not too much to ask.
c) A goodish pen, this is problematic if the only and best pen you have possessed for many years has been stolen/lost/misplaced. Ensuring an adequate replacement of the implement means a ready supply of good accessible Cartridge refills.
d) On the subject of typewriters (as opposed to easy keyboards), It’s nigh impossible to get ribbon and correction tape replacements in shops. There is one supplier of these articles in Dublin and he’s not always in his shop.
e)Read a lot on your subject, it helps if you are a bibliophile.
f) Be always aware that the visibility of women writers in any language is part of a huge struggle in multimedia and News Media.
