Word After Word

I urge my students to work by hand, to write slowly, long hand. I tell them: this is how we must work. I tell them I write everything by hand, and mostly, I do. But not always.

So, I showed parts of my memoir to friends and met them last week to see what they thought. I got a list of Favorite Sections and Places To Work. 100% of the Favorite Sections were written by hand. And every single one of the Places to Work? Composed on the computer.
