Conceptually, it&#8217;s a modern interpretation of a digital typewriter that saves your work both locally and to various cloud services (including email) and is meant as a simplified, distraction-free writing device. You&#8217;re meant to type and not worry about editing, which you can do later on a more traditional computing device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While all of these devices are relatively expensive, I feel that most writers are used to occasional indulgences. Whether it&#8217;s finding the perfect keyboard, software, pen, paper, chair, desk, etc., there is definitely something to the concept of your environment and tools making it &#8220;easier&#8221; to write, even if it&#8217;s purely psychological. I know I&#8217;ve indulged myself time and again with such things, and really, if it produces results, why not? In other words, if you&#8217;re a writer, get out there and write, then write some more any way that you&#8217;re able to!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1008\" height=\"756\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2021-07-21-20.36.43-1.png?resize=1008%2C756&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"The Ernest Hemingway Freewrite Signature Edition\" class=\"wp-image-178849\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2021-07-21-20.36.43-1.png?w=1008&amp;ssl=1 1008w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2021-07-21-20.36.43-1.png?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2021-07-21-20.36.43-1.png?resize=150%2C113&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2021-07-21-20.36.43-1.png?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>The Ernest Hemingway Freewrite Signature Edition<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a quick unboxing of the ultimate writer&#8217;s indulgence, The Ernest Hemingway Freewrite Signature Edition, aka The &#8220;Hemingwrite,&#8221; from Astrohaus.
