Chapter 1

Welcome to the world of Ink

Humans have been using ink to record their thoughts and histories for thousands of years. Ancient civilizations used soot to create their own inks for writing, the Renaissance saw the development of fountain pens, and the fifteenth century brought the illustrious printing press.

Centuries later, the ballpoint pen revolutionized the way we write, and the 20th century saw the proliferation of pens — from your standard BIC to the colorful gel pens of the 90s.

Chapter 2

Indelible As Ink

All through the centuries, one thing remains true: Ink has played a massive role in the spread of knowledge and communication throughout human history.

By writing down our thoughts, feelings, histories, and stories, we turn something as fleeting as the human existence into something permanently indelible.

As Shakespeare once said, “That in black ink my love may still shine bright."

Chapter 3

Everything I wanted without knowing it.

I love my smart typewriter - it is amazing and has definitely made writing much more enjoyable. For anyone that is hesitant because of the price tag, do it. You won't regret it. The only thing I wish it did - was "ding" at the end of a line.

Love it

I finally went for the Smart Typewriter after owning the Traveler for a few years. Absolutely loving the Smart Typewriter. The "Ink" edition is very attractive, and the typing experience is wonderful. I highly recommend splurging on the Smart Typewriter, especially if you like the Traveler. The Traveler is great, but the typing experience on the Smart Typewriter is really on another level. Now I can use one at home and one while out and about.

Distractionfree of longhand, speed of computer

The smart typewriter gives me the distraction free I have when writing longhand, but the speed of typing on a computer which is exactly what I wanted.

I love that it is also fairly portable, though I mostly leave it on my writing desk. But sometimes you just gotta write in bed.
That said I may get a traveller eventually for truly on the go. The clickity clack makes me selfconscious on the bus and I believe the traveller is quieter. The clickity clack is very nice at home though.
The all black of the ink edition is beautiful, although I am glad I can blind type. I may even go faster as I am not lookjng for the letter, but trusting my fingers to find the key.

I do wish the hokudai screensaver you see on all the pictures would cycle through though. I like the others to varying degrees but after staring at the store for so long I came to expect the hokudai wave.

Freewrite Ink Edition

I love this! It’s the best thing I have ever gotten for writing (: The only one small thing is the dark letters is a little hard to read without enough light but that’s ok! I plan on getting the black key caps with the white letters to replace these later with. Other than that, this is a perfect distraction free typewriter!! Can’t wait to finish my novels on it!! Thank you!!

Yeah, I love this thing

I need to clear my head and get my thoughts out there. The simplicity of the Freewrite is perfect for me. Also, I love the way it looks. The Ink Typewriter is a beautiful thing. It looks perfect on my desk and fits comfortably in my leather satchel when I need to get out and write somewhere. It’s the writer’s tool I have been looking for.
