Hi Darlene,

Good post and video! I wish that I would have learned shorthand years ago. I come with an engineering background and we always wrote in upper-case letters. Talk about being slow taking notes! lol Dawn is my note taker and does an excellent job at it.

Hi Darlene
I am so impressed by people that can write in shorthand. It seems to be a dying art and one that i hope can stick around for the next generation. With all this technology, even some things never die: faxes, shorthand etc. They are just such good skills and i would love to know how to write in shorthand as my brain works quicker than my hand can keep up.
Thanks for the post Darlene
Cheers,
Matt

Wow! I learn something all the time from you gal! You have the BEST ideas. Although I’m a rightie, my handwriting is painfully slow and tedious for me, so note taking while critical is not my favorite task. Today as I’ve developed wrist issues that’s even more of a problem. It’s great to know resources like this exist. Thanks for this awesome idea!

Well I must also put my hand up as never having learned shorthand. There’s been times whilst taking notes in seminars etc I’ve wished I had

Sue, The beauty of Shorthand is that 20 years later I can still pick up old notes and read them. Just Google Shorthand and you will see a lot of options to choose from.

Darlene I must be the only woman my age that did not learn shorthand at school. I have always wished I had as my writing when I take notes is awful and much of the time I cannot read it later. Good to know it is still available. Sue
