…to put it ALL in perspective!
Back in July I was poking around in my family’s attic and ran across this.
Woohoo!
There’s nothing a writer likes to see more than antiques that pertain to writing. *g* We love to imagine past writers sitting at their desks, creating their manuscripts.
I had to snap a photo because I instantly thought about the good ole days when manual typewriters were all we had. Then came electric typewriters and word processors and then the computer, but wait it wasn’t long before…ah, the ultimate came along–the laptop!
As I sit here on my couch, tapping on my laptop, I think about how far we’ve come with the tools we authors have at our disposal today vs a few decades ago. Ah, what a difference!
It was kind of eye opening when I blew that layer of dust off that old Underwood machine and thought, I’m so glad I don’t have to hammer out 2,500 words a day on this sucker!
So when I’m slow in sitting down and getting started on my story for the day, I think about that typewriter and how much easier I have it than folks did back then. I can’t complain. Well, except to say…at least a manual typewriter would NEVER crash on you!
