Alpha

I waited 2 years for this because I was dead set on the typewriter one—the Hemingway. I still want it but so happy I purchased the Raven Alpha. I write in bed a lot and quickly! So much more than before. It’s super light. I’ll be having a double mastectomy and then chemo soon and I know this is the perfect tool for my time. Super easy to carry about. It’s feeling like an extension of myself in fact, rather than a tool! Can’t recommend enough!

The alpha is awesome! I do most of my writting in the dark, the backlight is adjustable and soft enough to not strain your eyes. I love that it encourages progress. Forget worrying about typos or formatting or even the last paragraph. This thing helps you stay in the flow of writting by getting words on a page.

I love the mechanical sound of the keyboard, it brings me back to a different time.

If you are ready to take writting to the next level, the alpha is the perfect tool for the job.

This is a great Alpha now with a backlight! Use it daily.

I am enjoying using my Freewrite Alpha to get my initial thoughts and first drafts written without tying myself in knots with editing as I go.

I’ve used it to write about 1k words so far. I know my biggest concern / fear coming from a Chromebook was input lag as that was my largest concern there. I had heard some reviews that talked about that. I will say that there is no input lag that I notice. It’s awesome. I also find it really easy to maneuver back and forth and make small changes throughout. I still can’t see myself editing a whole novel on it, but spot checks before sending are a breeze. It is excellent at syncing with my Google drive. No issues there. I also noticed little to no errors once I send it over. You’d think that there’d be more, but I guess when I’m writing on drive, it picks up a lot of stuff that’s just minor and does distract from the writing more than I thought. Overall, I think it’s great and I will be using it a lot.
