<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As for me, I have a lot of practice writing by
hand with the transcriptions I've been doing... I find it easiest to have the
DVD playing fullscreen while I write the signs in a notebook, and then I put
them into SignPuddle. I don't SignWrite as fast as I write English (but
that might be partly because I erase and rewrite, and erase and rewrite until
I feel it's right); but then, I can't SignPuddle as fast as I can type
English, either. Still, most of my SW is by hand first, and then on
the computer.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>I think that this discussion has been very interesting. Mainly because
my sister and brother-in-law have been using SignWriting more and more. In
fact, my brother-in-law just showed me a hand written collage of writings in
which he is practicing. He had called me on the video phone to see if he was
writing signs correctly. He also showed me a hand written note from my
sister to him. They are both at the stage in learning where they look up the
words in the dictionary, which is quite normal for beginning. As I was
writing this, my brother-in-law called me back to ask me how to write a sign
that was not in the dictionary. He had some difficulty, but he will get the
hang of it. I just think it is interesting he is mostly writing by hand,
which is what we have been talking about. </DIV>
