Once when stuck on how to structure my second chapter of my thesis, and had been procrastinating over it for a week, I was sitting in the library with my computer, and I instead pulled out a pad of paper and wrote out the whole damn chapter in pen in about an hour.

It was all in my head, it just needed to come out. Somehow the words just flowed with a pen.



I find a mechanical keyboard has the same effect on me. My kids hate hearing my model M when they have work to do in the same room.
