Dear pen and paper,
it’s not you my dear...it is me and my desire to actually meet required deadlines and not be a whole month behind. I’ll never forget the times we shared, the hours we spent awake at 12 a.m. bursting with such passionate inspiration, working, crafting, building, and creating the right words together, the original way, the right way.
Remember when we wrote 136 pages of an “autobiography” only to hate it in the end and throw it out...heh.....because we knew we had all the potential to write a better one for both of us....and we did...only short by 83 pages years later.
I’ll never lose the love I had for you but I am affraid our time together has come to an end. The truth is...there is another, I’ll call him Type Right. With Type I just feel such a need for speed! things get done, things get saved, I never have to worry about losing anything, he provides me more options to things I never dreamed of having : font size, color AND shape!, he completes me, like a full journal. With him I feel like I conquer all essays.
It is time we alt. control. and delete this relationship, thank you for be the most greatest thing I could have ever asked for to finish my thoughts, write notes, draft papers and complete novels, but like all good things.....this is the end.
Sincerely, your undeserving Quill wielder
so yea, if you aren’t in hysterics right now, I have been doing twice as much typing as I have ever written. It has been a long journey, but now If I am seen with a pen, it will be mostly for the aesthetic. (or the occasional hookup with journaling) ;)
