How to Find Inspiration While Writing (typewriter!)

    You know what I have found helps... I was at a yard sale and a woman literally gave me an old manual typewriter for FREE! Well, me and my grandfather cleaned it out, and although it's a tad stubborn, it's incredible... it's an extremely great tool for writing and it is a break from the computer... there's no AIM, no websites, no pop-ups... just you, words, and your thoughts. You put more thoughts into your poems when you write them on a typewriter, and it also gives you a feeling of accomplishment for some reason... =] Trust me, cough up the money and buy a typewriter (along with some ink ribbons)... (maunal's are the best but electronic ones are okay as well...) because it is soo totally worth it!

    Ebay is thy friend! Go to a local antique store! If not, go to a yard sale... they aren't that hard to find and they are still made!
