There Are Almost No Obituaries for Sylvia Plath

This picture is of Sylvia Plath, writer and poet, taken about 60 years ago.  Sitting on a pile of rocks somewhere outside, maybe getting piles, writing on the high-tech item of the day, a typewriter.  Maybe todays equivalent would be writing on a laptop on canoe trip, or such.   I have thought of doing more of my writing, as much there is, with a pen and some tree pulp but until pens are equipped it a spell checker I will be using a computer or iPad or actually my iPhone.  Come to think of it, if I can write The Great American Novel on an iPhone, why can they make a pen that comes equipped with  a spellchecker.
