(Ok, so AO3 is having server issues since yesterday that are making the link not render quite right. I'll see if I can fix it later, but in the meantime, the link above should still work, and if for some reason it doesn't, you can find the story mirrored to my FFN account. And if you missed the post yesterday, Prompt #3 is up too.)

(Edit: link properly inserted now.)

6: Reflection Sometimes old times don't feel so long ago.

Fans of the Saturday morning cartoon may recognize "Blast to the Past" here (still one of my favorite episodes). Why not have fun playing around with it a bit?

Also this is the earliest point chronologically for the "past" segments.

I learned to touch-type when I was in grade school in the 90s. We had a "computer" class, which really was just to teach us how to type (it was 1992. I was 10). We used software that came on 5.25" floppy disks, and ran on black-and-green monitors. I didn't really see the point at the time because none of our classes required typing. Half of us had no computer whatsoever at home.

Well, then I hit middle school. I discovered I could write stories. I discovered that I could not only write these stories, I could type them up. I could write a novel. I could write multiple novels. And my parents, bless them, actually let me print them out, even though it used up paper and printer ribbon. I still have those printed stories.

My kids don't get typing classes in school. I guess the idea is "computers are so ubiquitous these days that kids will naturally learn to type at home." My oldest did, sure, but it's just reasonably fast hunt-and-peck typing with just two fingers.

I should probably show my kids how to set their hands on the home row and then have them do typing practice before internet time. Typing is a valuable skill for anyone.

Wait I just saw a lot of replies on a poll that some of us writers were never taught to type and still struggle with it. Is this as common as it looks on that post??

Personally, my answers are 'writer' and 'yes'.

When I was maybe seven years old, my mom made a rule that I had to type up a paragraph of text from her book before I was allowed to start using the internet for the day. No rules on time, just that I had to do it with my fingers resting on asdf and jkl; between presses.

Impatience taught me FAST.

I made a thing. I'm not sorry.

So... I found this and now it keeps coming to mind. You hear about "life-changing writing advice" all the time and usually its really not—but honestly this is it man.

I'm going to try it.
