Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even in this age of emails, texts, and tweets, there is an ongoing fascination with the simple act of putting pen to paper. Associations such as the International Association of Master Penmen and the Society for Italic Handwriting keep the traditions of calligraphy and penmanship alive, hand-writing typefaces continue to sell, and hand-drawn display type and packaging of all sorts enjoy a renaissance. Pen to Paper, a collection of letters by artists from the Smithsonian's Archives of American Art, reveals how letter writing can be an artistic act, just as an artist puts pen to paper to craft a line in a drawing. Brief essays explore what can be learned from the handwriting of celebrated artists such as Mary Cassatt, Frederic Church, Howard Finster, Winslow Homer, Ray Johnson, Rockwell Kent, Georgia O'Keeffe, Claes Oldenburg, Maxfield Parrish, Eero Saarinen, Saul Steinberg, and many others. Each letter is accompanied by an archival image of the artist or a related artwork, with a full transcription. Pen to Paper provides a fresh way to think about artists and their creative work and is sure to inspire your next handwritten note or letter.

Book excerpt: As a former athlete unable to express himself the way he wanted to, Adriel found comfort in expressing his love, his pain and the passion he has for basketball and for life through his poetry. Pen to Paper: A Transfer of Emotions is the manifestation of Adriel's passion for life, love and basketball. In college and throughout his life, he was a shoulder to many of his family and friends' deepest and darkest secrets. Unable to tell others of the problems he faced and the struggles of people who had confided in him, he learned to put his pen to paper and a book was born. A deep look into a man's soul who so desperately wanted to heal himself and those who would seek his advice, Adriel began to search deep into his heart and soul to express those feelings for others. Pen to Paper is a book that will show you tears of joy, laughter and pain until the game is over.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even at the beginning of the 21st century, we are far from becoming paperless. Pen and paper is still the only truly ubiquitous information processing technology. Pen-and-paper user interfaces bridge the gap between paper and the digital world. Rather than replacing paper with electronic media, they seamlessly integrate both worlds in a hybrid user interface. Classical paper documents become interactive. This opens up a huge field of novel computer applications at our workplaces and in our homes. This book provides readers with a broad and extensive overview of the field, so as to provide a full and up-to-date picture of pen-and-paper computing. It covers the underlying technologies, reviews the variety of modern interface concepts and discusses future directions of pen-and-paper computing. Based on the author’s award-winning dissertation, the book also provides the first theoretical interaction model of pen-and-paper user interfaces and an integrated set of interaction techniques for knowledge workers. The model proposes a ‘construction set’ of core interactions that are helpful in designing solutions that address the diversity of pen-and-paper environments. The interaction techniques, concrete instantiations of the model, provide innovative support for working with printed and digital documents. They integrate well-established paper-based practices with concepts derived from hypertext and social media. Researchers, practitioners who are considering deploying pen-and-paper user interfaces in real-world projects, and interested readers from other research disciplines will find the book an invaluable reference source. Also, it provides an introduction to pen-and-paper computing for the academic curriculum. The present book was overdue: a thorough, concise, and well-organized compendium of marriages between paper-based and electronic documents. Max Mühlhäuser, Technische Universität Darmstadt Everyone interested in how to design for real-world activities would profit from reading this book. James D. Hollan, University of California, San Diego

Book excerpt: Author Julie McCulloch Burton has an amazing zest for life, love, and laughter. In Pen to Paper, she shares that zeal through a diverse compilation of anecdotes, humorous stories, family recipes, and personal photographs. In this, Burton’s second book, she provides unique insight into everyday situations and covers an array of topics, from her home and married life, her battle with multiple sclerosis, and her adventures at the veteran’s hospital. The stories hail from a woman who has led an eclectic life: she learned to use chopsticks in Hong Kong: she bought a sapphire and diamond ring in Singapore; she walked through a sand storm in Saudi Arabia; and she taught deaf children how to ride and jump horses. Intimate, funny, cutting, and sometimes painful, the stories in Pen to Paper inform, entertain, and enlighten. The narratives illustrate that Burton has lived a long life, but that she has not yet lived a lifetime.

Book excerpt: Older folk are treasure houses when it comes to stories, and memories, having a lifetime of experience to draw on. This collection of poems, stories, recollections and reflections gives us a slice of many lives and sensibilities. Some pieces evoke an era that seems light years from today, yet only yesterday. Others allow us to imagine what it might be like to stand in someone else's shoes - or bare feet! There is sadness, joy, anger, humour and insight. In the words of one of the members: "Please enjoy the writings of our group in this book and perhaps be inspired to put pen to paper yourself." Ruth Carr, tutor.
