I still can't do the type without looking at keyboard thing but I do manage 40+ words a minute. Just as well I can research and divide it into relevant sections quickly or I would be a penury-stricken writer!
I can reach any spot on my back with my hands but I'm sure loads of people can do that. Can also read 500 words in a minute depending on the type of writing I am reading. Complex text will obviously take longer. Can also read upside down and backwards Not that fast if I'm honest.

Anywho, I may be the world's fastest hunt and pecker. Or at least I feel like it.

Wikipedia states:



I can sustain 60 to 70 for extended periods of time. One day I will do a Youtube video so everyone can mock my crooked pecker.
Another two finger typist here. Not as fast though, but I can still get to about 50 in short bursts.

I've never had any formal typing training. I used to play with my mother typewriter when I was a kid (a very old Underwood that weighs about 25 pounds. I still have it.) Because I type so much at work, I've developed my own system but I still can't look at the screen and type.

Just did a speed typing test and got 74 words per minute without looking at the keyboard. Not bad.

I type using a parsnip attached to my nose.

I can fit into a 12" X 12" X 8" biscuit tin.

You're smoking me. I think I was able to hit that with proper form, but not hunt and peck.

Good to hear from you SO. I miss having you around!
