"Ernest Hemingway's prewriting ritual included the sharpening of several pencils. He often needed all of them, too. 'Wearing down seven #2 pencils is a good day's work' he once said. Heimingway wrote standing up due to back pain that plagued him when he sat. He wrote his novels in longhand, except for dialogue, which he committed to a portable typewriter."
