I AM A LUDDITE

Readers! Terribly sorry to have neglected you! Unfortunately I have been sucked into the vortex that is Tumblr.

Do stop on by > Caterpillar, Caterpillar

It provides a better solution to my musings than this. Like the inboard I keep in my room, crammed with scraps of random paper and postcards.. Henceforth, this blog will be reserved for what I like to call my 'grassroots journalism', pretentious though it may be. We shall see.

Anyway, back to my being a havoc-causing traditionalist. I love to write, as you may have already guessed. I write all sorts, but I was just thinking how there is a disparity between the speed of my thoughts and that of my pencil, when I am writing by hand. However, when I write on a computer, I always always get distracted. Therefore, I want a typewriter. I love the sound, I love the rarity and the clumsiness of it, the clack-clack ting! but above all I love the purity of function. Multitasking is a fallacy of modern invention, and I don't want it. Any thoughts?

Hope you are all enjoying your summers -
