8/12: writing by hand

I've had an on-and-off habit of hand-writing a letter every Sunday morning.  I wish it were more of an "on" habit than an "off" one, but I have trouble maintaining it.  Today, though, I did write a letter after breakfast, and it felt good to have the words come onto paper without my backspacing to edit them afterward.

Correspondence is one of my great loves.

Part of me loves it, too, but I think I've now gotten so used to typing (and hence being able to revise easily) that I can get intimidated at the prospect of hand-writing letters. That's one reason why I wish I could maintain my Sunday morning habit more regularly: I think regularity would shrink the intimidation factor.
