South Paw

Even though it comes with smudgy pen marks, useless scissors and an early death (statistically speaking :)) I love being left-handed!


Any lefties passing by? Anyone living with a lefty?

Keep kicking ass!

  1. My daughter is a lefty and one of my favorite people in the world. She only writes with her left. Everything else (holding a bat, guitar, etc.) is right. Lefty's rock!

  2. I loved to watch my dad write. It was fascinating to see how his hand curved inward as he looped his letters together.

  6. My father was a lefty. Surprises me that everybody says something so banal, but maybe it shouldn't.

    My favorite fictional lefty would have to be Eric Chant of the Diana Wynne Jones Chrestomanci books.

    I'm starting up a 'Critiquing and Supportive Crusaders' program, where participants in the Second Crusade can find other writers to exchange critiques with or form supportive critiquing circles. If you're interested, come by The Kelworth Files to check it out!

    @g-girl - Hey, fellow lefty! Thanks for visiting :)

    @kelworthfiles - Lots of lefty Dads in the blogosphere! (I have one, too :)) Ooh, and I soooo love that you have a favorite fictional lefty!!! The critique circles are a great idea - you're going to get an awesome response :)

  8. My husband and one of my best friends are both lefties. We have to be careful about seating when we go to restaurants, or else we're always bumping elbows. Secretly, I've always wished I was a lefty.

  9. @Lisa - Sooo true! No wonder lefties die sooner - constant hazards!! (And I say, with a left handed husband and best friend? Consider yourself an honorary lefty!)
