Analog or Digital / myLot

I enjoy writing with pen and paper. Whenever I am out in public I always have a note book and pen to describe whatever is happening around me. I love to reread my old Journals which have been written in by hand. When I read I enjoy the feel of holding a book in my hand and turning the pages with anticipation of what is coming next. Which do you prefer when reading or writing? Analog or Digital

For writing I prefer the digital version, because I am a speed typist, but for reading I only love real paper books.

Hi, I prefer the paper version, maybe its because I am an old timer, I would rather write things out (manually) and read paper books and magazines over a digital one.

Hi, I love the internet but there are some times when I enjoy the paper version. Perhaps because I'm an old timer too.

@glenniah I still prefer to curl up in bed with a paper book rather than an electronic device.

I prefer typing on a keyboard, My fingers can't produce legible writing for very long. I used to keep long journals of all sorts of writing an doodling. But these days, it's all out here on the net.

Since the emergence of computers i seldom write with a pen anymore . So , my handwriting has deteriorated . But with reading , i prefer a book .

I prefer to write on a keyboard, since I have arthritis now. I can hardly read my own handwriting, and it's a slow process. I prefer to read paper books.
