As Told By C.S. BeatyAs Told By C.S. Beaty: Polar PlungingI’ve never liked being called the “baby of the family,” even if it is accurate.My sister, Denise, is 12 years older than me, so naturally our adolescent life experiences didn't have a lot of overlap. By the time I finished kindergarten, Denise was already out of the house. After she moved away for college, it didn’t take long before I noticed her spending a lot of time with a "friend" of hers named John.I liked John, but we didn’t have much in common. He was a few years older than Denise, so the age...2025-06-2410 min

It resides underneath my computer monitor when not in use since its low profile was designed to be so compact it could be toted around war zones for correspondences in Vietnam. Or something like that. It was the coolest looking typewriter when I typed “typewriter” into an eBay search bar after being infatuated by the documentary California Typewriter. It was my third typewriter, fourth if you count my Lego typewriter—which my kids do.My second typewriter was a present from my Uncle Bob. I have...2025-06-1009 min
