Pickpick

Fun book: I jumped around a lot. Along with the romance and nostalgia comments, Polt emphasizes that 20 & 30 year-olds love typewriters for rebellion against today‘s norms, for feeling unplugged. I enjoyed the guides to brands of typewriters and their strengths, & the inroads presented to this and other analog communities (type-ins sound like fun.) I‘ve written untold papers & letters on my typewriter, the clatter redolent of childhood memories.

Suet624 I use the typewriter at work whenever possible. And I‘m pretty darn old. 😀 4y
Hamlet @Suet624 Three cheers for those of us old enough to know their value! 4y

“Put a computer in front of people and they‘ll probably gravitate to their usual sources of messages, updates, and entertainment. Put a typewriter in front of people and they‘ll want to write from within. The typewriter doesn‘t push ‘content‘ at them; it draws words from them.”

Suet624 Lovely quote and lovely typewriter. 4y
JuniperWilde Lovely typewriter 🇫🇮 2y
Hamlet @JuniperWilde Thanks! My brother put the flag on the typewriter after a trip to Finland. I‘ve never been there, but I‘m a big fan of The Kalevala, so that‘s a start. (I still have the typewriter in regular use.) 2y

gradcat @EadieB Aww, Eadie! Thank you very much! I didn‘t send any cards out this year because I‘ve been sick, and let‘s be honest—I just didn‘t get it together in time! But just know that I‘m wishing you the best (esp. health) for the holidays, and I love you & the rest of our little reading group! 🥰 5y
