I personally prefer typing as I can type quicker than I can write but I still prefer handwriting when I'm writing something personal like in my art pad or letters and cards.Kitkathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17556485243215019998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-542278098221403604.post-2752115549962701202013-02-04T23:36:51.036+00:002013-02-04T23:36:51.036+00:00This made me smile because I do EXACTLY the same t...This made me smile because I do EXACTLY the same thing. I write sometimes by hand, sometimes typed straight into the computer, but whenever I find myself stuck when typing, I revert to writing by hand and usually find my stride again. I am also guilty of having dozens of notebooks with little snippets. It's funny, really, because just this afternoon I dug out half a dozen of my old notebooks in search of something I KNEW I had written, but did not know where or what I had done with it. I found it, and a few other things I'd forgotten I had even written, but it did take me flipping through all six notebooks to do so. I really really like the idea of writing a blog post by hand, though. I may have to do that sometime!Kashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04825319426944810820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-542278098221403604.post-43857478731935742832013-02-03T20:26:23.214+00:002013-02-03T20:26:23.214+00:00It really just depends.

I am really paranoid about people reading my writing (even though I know no one probably cares), so I made up a code and would handwrite in that for a while. Then I had some notebooks that I would carry around everywhere. The best thing about writing things out longhand is that you can pull out your book and pencil anywhere and just jot something down.<br /><br />It's also helpful for the people who constantly want to edit stuff (like me). Handwriting gives you permission to write rough and not worry about it.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15725049899131699912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-542278098221403604.post-75770405742319347172013-02-02T20:36:57.798+00:002013-02-02T20:36:57.798+00:00It depends on the project for me; some things end ...It depends on the project for me; some things end up written out longhand and some get typed. I find that handwriting can be better (you can't go back and edit much, and then you have an easy opportunity to redraft when typing it up), but I don't swear by either.BlueHairedMeerkathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05588763286483637697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-542278098221403604.post-56813922900703654842013-02-02T20:11:14.537+00:002013-02-02T20:11:14.537+00:00I used to do this once in a while for fun, but it&...I used to do this once in a while for fun, but it's been FAAAAR too long ;-)Jolene Perryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14809468564016928636noreply@blogger.com
