Stories and otherwise

Handwriting 1,667 words every day for 30 days is definitely a lesson in handwriting technique. Once I get to the last two pages I'm writing in the day, I start to feel my elbow and forearm muscles responding to the work I'm putting them through. I haven't yet reached that point where my wrist starts to feedback, so I'm hoping I'm doing just enough not to hit a tipping point. And also, these appendages do everything else for me besides think. They prepare and put food in my mouth, they help me make motions that accentuate oral communication, they assist in maintaining hygiene, they wipe my ass, they put on my clothes, and so on and so forth. They really do a lot for me. So, thank you hands. I've really been meaning to use my left hand in writing. It holds the book in place, but it's really been begging for a turn. And even now my right arm is exhausted, or at least close to it.
