Spooky

I'm writing a scene right now that involves a ghost.  And right as I'm writing the ghost's only line of dialogue, I press the CTRL key to underline the words -- and it pops off the keyboard.  Ghosts are inside my laptop.  I think I've been able to re-attach it, although it feels not-quite-attached.  At least it's pretty much the least important key there is.  On my previous laptop, a couple months before it was put out to pasture, the letters started popping off.  Maybe it's the way I type.  Although that one was 5 years old, this one's barely a year.  So it seems way too early for my keyboard to start getting destroyed.

I don't know how to type, incidentally.  I hunt and peck.  Quickly, but with my 2 pointer fingers and that's pretty much it.

I know this sounds stupid but learning to type was one of the smartest things I ever did. In eight weeks you learn the keyboard and I've never looked back! For a writer, it makes life so much easier . . .
