Eva’s Byte #518 – Gone the Way Of
In our current period of human history often referred to as the Information Age, so many things this Baby Boomer grew up with in the Sixties have gone the way of the dinosaurs.
To cite a few:
Easter outfits comprised of bonnets, white gloves, and black patent leather Mary Janes.
Typewriters, Wite-Out, and carbon paper.
Rotary dial phones, telephone booths, the White Pages, and Yellow Pages.
Digital technology has rendered cursive writing an endangered motor skill.
All of the aforementioned and more have potential for a comeback in fiction. For one, the wall-mounted, rotary dial phone made an appearance in my Contemporary, ‘Aileen’s Guesthouse,’ set in the Seventies.
Also taking place in the Groovy Decade, my current Contemporary in progress. At this point in time, I’ve tweaked the draft of chapter 11 to 1602 words. I’m currently drafting chapter 12 (987 words thus far).
*May each of us move forward while effectively bridging the past and present.
My sincere appreciation to you for reading this far.
