close up of vintage typewriter keys

For the love of writing

I came across the image above via my Pinterest feed. As I love writing and its glorious accouterments: typewriters, journals, pens, stationery…all such lovely things for me…this image sung to me.

It makes me think of Kerouac, typing madly upon his spool of paper. Poets, journalists, writers of years past, clicking these keys magically. Yeah, I know these folks didn’t Bullet Journal, but at least the book has a classic style.

So, that’s how I started my day. How about you?

    checking for a phone signal
    it’s out driving techos mad
    but internet serves
    ps
    i’ve used no caps recalling ‘archy and mehitabel’ typed by a cockroach with the soul of a poet on a typewriter like those you picture. he couldn’t operate the return to get the upper register.
    if you are unfamiliar with the stories, you might be amused.
