Modifying Hobbies

I really don't like this, but it is what it is. I have several hobbies including crocheting, coloring, video editing, and writing. All of those need my hands which is problematic because I have arthritis symptoms. I refuse to give up writing, that's not gonna happen. I have been writing 5 different, and still unfinished novels in Hungarian. None of them will ever be published. I just do it for my entertainment, but it's extremely important to me. I don't want to give up my other hobbies either, but they can be modified.
I can do video editing without using my touchpad. Instead, I use a mouse with an ergonomic mousepad. Crocheting is harder. I have not been in the mood to crochet, but if I were, I would go with simple washcloths instead of amigurumi.
And coloring? I found very cool coloring books a couple of years ago that now come in handy.
It only requires a brush or aqua pen. The designs in the book contain pigments embedded onto the page, and the colors just magically appear. It's way easier on your hands because you don't have to press a pencil on the paper. I love them. You can find several of them on Amazon, I even saw some based on the works of Bob Ross and Thomas Kinkade.
Hobbies are huge!
