I'm a writer and I run Emacs full-screen so I can see as much of the
buffer as possible. Because of that I use the blinking box cursor
because it stands out from the mass of text.
For the same reason I also use M-x hl-line-mode to highlight the line
containing the cursor.
I'm sure the other cursors work better for other people but this is
the best for me.
