Pam

Hey, thank you.

Thank you, Kim.

I'm so glad to be able to talk to you.

You seem to have the answers, and I have many questions.

Well, let me tell you first, I've been listening to you off and on for years and years, and I remember when you had a tablet.

I did.

And I still probably have it.

I probably still have it in the recess as my little box of old tech and my old computers and my old laptops that I don't know what to do with quite.

But my question is, I'm doing a lot of writing now, free writing journals.

I have...

I have letters from my great-grandparents in the 1800s.

I have letters from my parents to my grandmothers, my letters back and forth to people.

I love that.

Stories written, all written, mostly written in cursive.

Okay.

Now, what I'm trying to do is figure out how in the heck I can get these stories, you know, that include, you know, family history back to the Mayflower and stuff, into...

into a text format so I can create a book for myself, for my family, for posterity in my family.

I don't have children, but I have nieces and nephews and great-nieces and nephews, and maybe they'll want to know what their crazy Aunt Pam did once in their life.

Well, you know, I would rather when I'm writing, I would rather go longhand because stuff flows out of me so much easier than when I'm trying to type and, you know, use the keyboard.

I'm on a Mac.
