Does anyone else who grew up writing essays longhand, then retyping them on the typewriter remember making the transition to a computer?
Our school got a computer lab at the end of my college career (Xywrite, anyone?) and you had to schedule a 2 hour slot to type your papers…that you’d written longhand in your dorm. After several iterations of this, I learned to think directly into the computer and not bother with the hand writing, but it took a while. A switch had to flip in my brain before I was able to do this. Now I cannot imagine doing it the old way. I even write condolence and thank you notes on my laptop, then copy them longhand into the card.
