I have been finding that when I sit and write for long periods of time my hands get really cold. Since I am always cold this is hardly a surprise. I am not willing to pay for extra Biofuel to keep the house the three degrees warmer it would require to keep my fingers happyish, so I have come up with another solution: fingerless gloves. I bought them at work, and they are part of a set of two-piece elbow-length gloves. The gloves are meant to be worn underneath elbow-length fingerless (and thumbless) knit tubes. I have removed the glove part, and wear just the outside part, keeping my hands warm and allowing me to type unimpeded. And someone told me I look like Bob Cratchett, which I took as a compliment.
