#WordyandWheelyWednesdays: A Wordy Whim

Hello my lovely readers!

Tonight's #WordyandWheelyWednesdays entry is something a little different from my usual posts, although it does combine both the Wordy and Wheely elements of this blog and my personality.

Anyone who spends even just a little amount of time with me will probably glean that I love poetry - reading, but especially writing, it. Actually, even if you go just a few posts back, you can verify that for yourself. You'll probably also be aware that this hobby, alongside my PhD, means that I spend quite a bit of time on a screen, just as I am now, to write this post.

So, in an effort to remedy this a little, I've been on the hunt for some years now for an alternative piece of technology - because, though I can write well with a pen or a pencil, and enjoy it very much, it gets tiring.

Imagine my delight, then, when a lovely little vintage shop in Leamington (Berylune, self-termed 'a pint-sized department store') advertised a typewriter. The independent company have been open since 2012, when I was in second year, and I've followed them ever since in the hopes of getting my very own portable gem. As of last Wednesday, that dream came true, and I couldn't be happier - because not only is it perfect, it's fab for physio!

Here's to typing...and to my fully-fledged hipster transformation! Hehe. Huge thanks to Berylune and love to all of you until next week!
