    In Japan and other parts of Asia it is a form of constrained writing.

    Refugees and political prisoners have written books using smartphones because either they were not allowed PCs or would send out chapters one SMS message at a time using borrowed phones.

    In the US, authors have written epic fantasy novels on their smartphone because it allows them to carry their drafts in their pocket and work on them as fancy strikes. 60% of "The Warded Man" was written on an HP iPaq, 10 years ago.

    >I did the math once. Early on my publisher asked me that in an interview, and it was about 60 percent. About 100,000 words. But it wasn’t all on the train; sometimes I do it while in the park, or in-line at the bank, or while on a road trip where I’d sit in the passenger seat and just work.

    The YA romance novel "After" was written on a smartphone and made its author a couple million bucks before turning into a movie that made $63 million.

    Novels used to be written with pen and ink on paper, and later were typewritten. A smartphone is not as ergonomic as a physical keyboard but it is light years ahead of writing everything out by hand.
