‘Uncommon Type’ by Tom Hanks – a typecast review
It's fitting that my very first typecast is a review of "Uncommon Type: Some Stories", a book of typewriter-inspired short stories by Tom Hanks (out October 2017).

heh, well I like his other work and apparent attitude towards life. Think I’ll get me a copy, as I don’t much mind over-written dialogue. 😀
I’ll bet the dialogue was at least fun to type-write!
Sounds like fun! I am impressed by the thickness of the book. Tom has been busy.
Hammond Type-O-Matic? That’s a new one for me! 🙂
You know what, now I’m not sure about the Type-O-Matic. It’s in the book as Hammond Type-O-Matic; Wilson did use a Hammond, but I wonder if it’s an error? Probably should have done some research on that first.
I am looking forward to this.
By Time-O-Matic, Tom probably meant Multiplex.
