How else are you supposed to use a typewriter if not to honor the foremothers with a Star Trek slash fic?

I can’t believe it, this is what I needed!

If you're a serious writer, you've felt the urge to type on a typewriter.

I myself drool when I see one in a TV show or a movie. But typewriters are expensive, outdated, heavy, and harder to find than my grandma's dentures. Which was why discovering a website that simulates the typewriter experience was shocking.

It’s a distraction-free online notepad that offers basic formatting. I began to write like usual and found a strange clicking sound with every input. 

Click; click; Kashang: the last sound being entering the “return” or “enter” key. It even simulates the dragging sound when repositioning the sheet. I won’t bore you with the details; I had to get that. 

I mean, hear it for yourself:

Believe me, this audio doesn’t come close to my experience. And if you have earphones on, you’re set for a writer’s experience.

I don’t care much for the ASMR mania, but this is good for every writer. It makes you feel like you're in a minimalistic, sad-looking room. The writer, in the corner with the closed hangings, typing away the day while it pours outside. It’s divine. 

But most of all, I like how it turns writing into a game. The clicking sounds make for excellent drums for the ears. Say goodbye to the mute background while the rest of your brain is raging for information about whatever you’re writing about. 

I'm glad another strange wish was granted by an unexpected twist. It feels like someone is rewarding me for my silent efforts. And to them and you, I say thanks.😊

Until next time, adieu.
