It's fun for a while, pretending I'm living in the early 19th century and doing everything by candlelight, but it's hard to read unless you have quite a few candles by your side, and they really do flicker. As for doing anything else, like trying to cook dinner—keep the bandaids handy!Lilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07507054062472117994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8386077972421065740.post-89483253587505319582017-07-09T12:07:41.700-04:002017-07-09T12:07:41.700-04:00I almost bought a mechanical 'quill' pen d...I almost bought a mechanical 'quill' pen during a moment of romantic fantasy, but the price tag stopped me short. $1700.

I find it slows the whole process down. However, editing is a drag ;)Sue Barrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06347249118943488564noreply@blogger.com
