Handwritten: Your Favourite Quotes

Following so many deadlines simultaneously is very stressful. Literary contests, certificates, applications. Thank goodness for my library, sometimes I need a break and I don't have the time to go to the library.

 

Very interesting description by Miss Anne Lister in the 1810s, calling what I assume is a bicycle a "carriage impelled by the feet of the person going in it."

Or a 3-wheeled Flintstone car?

That's what makes me doubt whether I assumed the object correctly or not. A three-wheeled bicycle... I cannot imagine it but prototypes are known for their quirky characteristics.

Bookman,

Thank you for your tight construction of Elmore Leonard’s recommendations. Your ability to maintain consistent x height is impressive.

I appreciate your kind words.

I love the smell of fountain pen ink in the morning.

Lizzie Borden took an axe And gave her mother forty whacks

And when she saw what she had done....

She gave her father forty-one.

"I am not guilty" Lizzie Borden

so is Joey Buttafuoco..

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast. 
    • Ceilidh
      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
