@jenwriter17  I meant the show you were talking about on your “you know you’re a writer when” post. 🙂

Andy Griffith is the best!

Also congrats on winning this month’s prompt!

@Rochellaine

I have to disappear for about an hour but I’ll word war when i get back 🙂

@seekjustice I’ve been procrastinating again.  Want another word war? 🙂

Hallu, folks! 🙂

@rochellaine

I can type without looking at either the screen or the keyboard, but I don’t use the keys and fingers the way the touch typing program tried to teach me. I don’t think I use my thumb and ring finger at all. Having said that though, I’ve probably taught myself a kind of cross between two different styles. It works for me.

We use the…[Read more]

@seekjustice Wait…so you don’t look at the screen when you’re typing?  That’s interesting.  Do you use all your fingers, or just a few?  I was taught to touch type as a little kid, so I never had to worry about learning a new style. 🙂

So do you people use the word “guy” to describe someone ever?  Obviously you know that’s what we use ins…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I can’t actually touch type, I tried to learn once but I was already so set in my ways that I could never do it properly. I’ve never timed myself for only one minute but I imagine it would be similar to yours.

G’day, Uncle Bill 😉

Nope, Justice isn’t that great at it, but he’s trying 😀

@alia *very wide grin* I suppose so…

@daeus Thanks for sharing this. I find the idea of writing a story that teaches you as you write pretty revolutionary in the area of moral story topics. If your story is an exploration not just a statement, you can learn and grow so much more yourself as you create it.

@annaberens Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet 😀 Your WIPs sound really interesting, especially the idea of the magical higher and lower races. How do you keep all those projects organized in your head??

@seekjustice Okay, no problem 🙂

@skredder Alrighty 😉

@seekjustice Yes, I can touch type.  I can type 60-70 wpm when copying something.  So my slowness is just in thinking of things to write. 😉  How fast can you type?  (If you can do 300 in five minutes, that means you can at least type as fast as I can if not faster!)

Uncle Bill would be very startled at being called a “bloke!” 😛

Ahhh!  I love…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Oh yeah, I did a lot of word wars in that doc, mostly with myself but sometimes with other people. I remember one time I was trying to beat my record for five minutes which was consistently 290 and get 300 which I eventually did.

I’ve got a question. Can you touch type?

Poor Uncle Bill! 🙁 You muat get the poor bloke out of…[Read more]

@alia That’s great!  Typing more than I thought I would is the real reason I do word wars. 😉  I try to make myself go fast, but I do much better when there are other people I know are typing at the same time.

Oh, of course. 😛

@seekjustice Wow!  Bu I knew you would beat me! 🙂  You accidentally left some of your typing races in the first dra…[Read more]

@alia

Adieu then! I might be on when you get back.

@seekjustice, if only. but after I clean it’s family movie time. But I should be back in about 2.5ish hours

@alia

Good luck cleaning your room and may you return speedily to the realm of writing!

@rochellaine

I typed like crazy and I got about 680 words, which I think is a personal best 😉

How’s the western coming along now? (Oh and I’m just about to write another window scene!)

@rochellaine, @seekjustice, I got 247, which is more than I thought I would.

I have to go now because my mom thinks a clean room is important when obviously writing is importanter…

@seekjustice Congratulations! I’m so glad the talk went well! 🙂

@rochellaine I’m sorry. I’m praying for you and the kids.
