Prior to this assignment, I had never articulated my workflow before; the prompt's underlying logic struck me as oddly placed in a literary studies course. Additionally, I was new to many of the tools that I identify in my response. Several hours of tinkering and exploring preceded the assignment's actual writing process, but as a result, my awareness of the tools available for online research, writing, and project management positively exploded. Moreover, the process of articulating my methodology proved extremely helpful—all the more because I was still developing a sense of how browser add-ons and open source applications could aid my productivity. I continue to use all of the tools that I incorporated into my workflow during this exercise.
