I had to excise “More to come. Best wishes.” It was between the main text and my signature. I realized I wasn’t so inclined to put my signature on the web. See my first typecast below:

Hello Typeosphere.
My name is Parker Harris Emerson, and this is my
inaugural post. I’m writing on what appears to be a Smith-
Corona Coronet Cartridge Twelve (or possibly a Coronomatic -
but I think that is the ink cartridge). I got it as a gift
from my future mother-in-law, who got it from her mother
when she went off to college.

I used to write fiction on a typewriter when Iwas a little

really get into.

The machine shows signs of much love and use. Currently,
the “one/exclamation point” key, and the kew (?) key don’t
work, and the space bar is a little
win
wonky, but otherwise
it sem seem.s like an iwredible machine.

I had a talk
e
with my future mother-in-law (Cathy) about
the virtues of speed versus accuracy. Clearly, I’m going
to need to start emphasizing the latter, as my focus has
always been on speed plus a well-customized auto-correct.
