Chelle, I am with you on the backspace being a REVELATION! I remember typing papers for school on a typewriter and chanting "don't mess up... don't mess up!" in my head!!

I did 99% of my writing (once I started it) in spiral notebooks at work. Not until I got my own laptop was I able/willing to type it directly into the laptop.

I didn’t have a typewriter, but I still have some notebooks with hand written Spuffy fanfic from back in the day. We had a computer, so I’m not really sure why I didn’t type it. *shrugs*

I was writing fanfic and poetry on a beat up typewriter that had sticky keys and sharing it with friends pre-internet. My first word processor and the ability to backspace resulted in a choir of angels over my head. I think I cried.

Ah... dial up days... LOL I remember reading a lot more than I do now. At least reading actual books.

@honeygirl... I could have gone the rest of my life quite happily never hearing that noise again! My poor mother got so annoyed with me, because when she tried to ring me, my line was always engaged, and she wanted to know who I was talking to so much!

Looking back to pre-internet days... a lot more mindless TV, and six books a week from the mobile library - not always to my taste, but I'd read them anyway, for something to do.

Though I love to tell people I had one of the first laptop computers, though it wasn't configured at all like the ones we use now.

LOL @Chelle -- I wonder what I did for the first more than 20 years of my life, with no internet and very little computer activity.

I refer to pre-internet days as "The Deplorable Beforable" and I don't like to recall my life before the land of fanfic and joy. Pretty sure it was like a deserted hellscape of boredom and misery.

I can vividly remember how it was. My life was boring. I had to actually talk and interact with real people. Made me feel all kinds of icky things

Ugh. Sorry, Niamh. We'll look into it as soon as we can. It is not fun times over here in the land of no internet.

Yay! So excited, Chelle!
Also, Got Your Six was completed on Friday, but it didn’t show up on the list, if you were waiting for it.
