I still use pen and paper - i've thrown the chalk and slate out! In my admin job I spend 99% of the day on computer - I also admit to spending far too much time on it at home too. So the simple act of pen and paper to write anything is calming, its good to THINK properly before writing it down, knowing you cant just delete it. I sometimes even take great pleasure in crossing things out. Putting a line through a whole paragraph, and starting again. Ohhh to the days of liquid corrector!! So I still write - and read from books, but that's another blog all by itself. Mel this is interesting. I still use pen and paper – i’ve thrown the chalk and slate out!
