What do thousands of writers, makers, kids, poets, artists, steampunks, hipsters, activists, and musicians have in common? They love typewriters--the magical, mechanical contraptions that are enjoying a surprising second life in the 21st century.
The Typewriter Revolution documents the movement and provides practical advice on how to choose a typewriter, care for it, and use it--from National Novel Writing Month to letter-writing socials, from type-ins to typewritten blogs, from custom-painted typewriters to typewriter tattoos.
The book features the experiences and creations of leaders of the 21st-century typewriter revival, including artists such as L.A. Marler, Keira Rathbone, and Tim Youd; street typists such asTypewriter Rodeo, Poems While You Wait, andJacqueline Suskin; and the bloggers of the Typosphere.
