There's something magical about writing with a pen and paper. Generally, I consider myself a pretty high-tech person. Much of each day in the office, if not in meetings or visiting other areas, is spent firmly planted at my desk, typing away on projects or emails. I nearly go in to withdrawl at the thought of being without my Blackberry, and refuse to run without my iPod &
Nike+.
For all that, thought, I sometimes find my best writing and thinking comes while holding a pen and writing on paper. Something about the colour of ink, the act of scratching out a mis-spelled word or (let's face it) simply bad idea... it just makes the words flow and sentences fit together.
So, dear whoever first put pen to paper: you're brilliant, and I thank you.
