Writing with pen

I too, still write with a pen. Often I will start my stories this way. I will write when I get inspiration in a notebook. This is often what comes to mind first. When I go to input it into my word document I am able to reread what has been written and it is sort of a re-write if you will from paper to document. I love to write my stories this way. I get more out of them and I can take the pad of paper and pen anywhere. Yes, now a days you can take just about any technology anywhere; but for me who is poorer than poor I use the cheapest thing out there!! Sandy

I love getting a new notebook with a pretty cover, opening it and then writing on the pristine page with a pen! Ofcourse, computers are much quicker but there is something very satisfying about using a pen and paper. I'm weird - I love stationery! Whenever anyone asks me what I want for a birthday or Christmas present, I always ask for nice notebooks, ballpoint pens or fountain pens. I write a lot so I always keep a notebook and pen near me to jot down snatches of stories, articles or ideas. Long live the pen!

I still write and prefer to write with a pen when I write letters than to send email to those that I really give importance to. I do use a pen at work and I think pens would still be used for a long time. Mentioning that besides signing some cheques or bank notes, it still implies the usage of pen and paper. If technology was really that advance, we wouldn't be using paper at all as pens are always paired up with paper no matter what. As long as we use paper, we would still inevitably use pens to write on them.

technology may be developed, it does not change my writing with a pen. In general, I use it to record the phone number, the activities that I will do tomorrow and a shopping list that needs to be purchased. So we will not lose the habit of writing.

Well then I guess I'm the morgue then. I still write with a pen, and I write with a pen more than I write on the computer or any other manor of gadgetry. I love writing in journals. I keep a diary, and I also take notebooks to class with me to write down all my notes and any random thoughts I have during class. I don't think we should depend on technology so much. It's very temperamental.
