What is a Blog Blog? Better Late Than Never?
Well, this was something I typed last weekend. Oops. It sat in the scanner waiting to be scanned for a week. Better late than never, I suppose. I guess it depends on your point of view.
What is a Blog Blog
Typing Assignment #21 – Inner Monologue
Once again, it is time for another typing assignment. This is my first blog post in 2019. I feel like I should be able to come up with more content than this. But I have lots of things to do offline. Time to get going and do these things.
Typing Assignment #20 – Pet Peeves
It has been a while since I posted anything on my blog. I really should take the time to post more often. 🙂 Well, perhaps that should be a New Year’s resolution – post more on the blog. In any case, the time has come for another Joe Van Cleave Typing Assignment. This one is number 20 in the series and is on the subject of pet peeves. Doesn’t everyone have a pet peeve or two?
Inspiration
I’m amazed that it is September already! Time flies regardless if you are having fun or not. See above for my entry for Typing Assignment #19, Inspiration. The typewriter I used is the green 1957 Olympia SM-3 pictured above.
Typing Assignment # 18 – Science Fiction
For a change, I am not going to be the last one done with my entry for Typing Assignment #18! The assignment was to write a one page science fiction story.
I was happy to put a new ribbon into the 1899 Smith Premier No. 4 I used to type the above entry with. However, my typing technique isn’t as good as it ought to be. Sometimes the keys aren’t going straight down like they should and I think I just need to use the machine a bit more. I am currently doing that. It seemed to work with the 1901 variant of the Smith Premier No. 4 I have used previously.
Typing in Public Part 2 (Better Late Than Never?)
It seems like I have forgotten to add some of my blog posts that I’d typed. So, in the spirit of getting things done, I am going to post them. What the heck. Here is Typing in Public, Part 2 from November 19, 2017, in the midst of NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month).
Too Many?

Final Resting Place – Typing Assignment #17
Typing assignment #17 was to take a found photo and type something (perhaps a short fiction) about it. Above is the photo and the text. Below is the typewriter I used to type this assignment, the 1901 Smith Premier No. 4.
