I’m not entirely happy with this one, but it came off my machine and I feel like I have to post it as a result. I don’t post everything, of course, but I’m trying to widen the funnel a little bit because, as expressed above, one of the goals here is to just get used to the idea that I put work out there for people to read. If it’s not the best work, that’s fine – we’ll both be uncomfortable about it, then.
In terms of the production of this one, I am way happier with how the text is readable on a computer screen. I think the typewriter has some alignment issues that I’ll get around to correcting eventually. The machine that produced it (a Royal Quiet DeLuxe) is quickly becoming my favorite to use. Somehow the platen has life in it despite being original to the machine. I don’t know how that might be possible but I’m not questioning it.
