I'm slow now, not because I'm old.

Well now there's an article about how writing on a screen is different from a hand.  Yeah I would say writing by hand is way different than doing so by keyboard. The visceral aspect of writing by hand is too strong to ever get the same thing from a computer (which I'm doing right now and I've clicked on several other tabs over the past few minutes so there's that fatal flaw of all inter-connected machines out there). 
But this doesn't mean that any old typewriter will do, because part of the reason I started doing this is that the King of American (possibly world) letters, James Baldwin, said he wrote by hand. So I had to. It really works and allows for a completely different process that includes completely rewriting on  the second go as well. 
Give it a try and see what you create!
