All you need to type with one hand -
with the same speed and accuracy as two handed typists -
is the One Hand Typing and Keyboarding Manual.
Personal message from Lilly Walters - One Hand Typist.
To be a GREAT typist, with one hand, you do NOT need a one hand keyboard.
It is not the violin you buy which makes you a great violinist. It is the hours of practice and the quality of the tutor which will make you a 'great' at anything - regardless of how many hands you are working with. I know, I am a one handed typist. I lost most of my left hand when I was 10, in a forklift accident. Today I do from 40 - 80 wpm (depending on how much coffee and sleep I've had) with just one hand on a standard NORMAL keyboard. See photo above. I have authored, and typed every word of 13 books, with the normal keyboard. I can go into any school, workplace or home and sit down with others at their computers. I can play and work on a keyboard just as well as they do. Competing with my two handed friends, on their ground, with their terms. I am not always the BEST typists in the crowd, but I am always well above average.
Do you have two hands? Are you a speed touch typist? Is it because of the keyboard you use? Or is it because you LEARNED HOW TO TYPE? A skill which takes hours of practice, just as any learned skill does, regardless of the keyboard you will be using.
Learning to type is a skill which does us well in school, at our friend's houses, at the library and when we want to get a job. We are much more valuable when we can walk into the workplace and sit down at their computers, rather than dragging in our own $900 keyboard, "Which of course you won't mind fixing when it breaks?" (By the way, they do mind!) Especially since you will be typing slower than if you LEARNED TO TYPE using the normal keyboard with one hand.
I welcome your calls, and e-mails.
