That their typing becomes worse and worse the closer they get to their word goal?

I am particularly having trouble getting my typing rows correct... for instance, that last bit read before correction:

"I an patriculary ahing trouble getiing my tyrping rows correct."

Thank the gods for auto-correct.

You know I did notice I as I got really close, not only did I type like crap, but the words I really needed seemed to evade me.

I found that whole scenes evaded me. Little subplots that I had so lovingly jotted down on index cards remained forgotten in the fro0nt of my binder while my characters spewed the most pathetically boring kind of drviel instead. That';s what December's for. Still typing badly.

I always type poorly, but I've kind of become my own auto-correct. I use the backspace key almost as often as the spacebar, and it's just become automatic to me. I know as soon as I've typed a mistake, so sometimes auto-correct actually trips me up.

I'm a bit of a strange one, I admit...

The more involved I am in the writing, the worse my typing is. The more it flows, the worse they typing. I always start my writing sessions by going back and fixing all the typos in the last day's work.

Yeah. I use a cream I get from my doctor to put on sore muscles and aggitated nerves....it works.

Try something like a misture of Aspercream, or take some aspirin or Tylenol and grind them up and put in water and rub on your fingers and get the arthritic and tired nerves to behave.

I have Lyrica too, it works to keep the fingers from doing dyslexiatyping.

I type fast fast, learned at 8 years old, typed forms for my father's bookkeeping office since I was cheaper than a printer in thoses days...and so now can fly...but dyslexiatyping happens.

I am always experimenting with stuff for my hands. Maybe stimulants work too...but I'm not wasting my Concerta on my hands.

In the end, analiyudjm ioe pu09idid u0 iu i u can try to beeteit albeit impsoasble but if houo geth the first and last lerrtes cruect it's mprma prttey mcuh Enlisgh anwyay!!!!
