Try using voice.: Launch Google Documents from your smartphone, press the microphone icon on your smartphone keypad, and start dictating essays with your voice. Voice recognition is much better than it used to be and you can get a lot done this way. Regarding your wrist, take Advil (ibuprofen) and wrap the wrist with an ace bandage. See a doctor if the pain is intense.
