SKF NOTE: I bought this L.C. Silent typewriter circa 1971, used, for $35 at a Goodwill in Huntington, NY.

I began my professional writing career with it.

Factoring for inflation, magazines — including Modern Drummer — paid me $2,500 for stories written on my L.C. Silent.

I haven’t used my typewriter in a long, long time.

But now I am bringing it back to life.

Stay tuned!
