I type faster than I think, that's for sure. I always say I type like a writer, poking around wild and willy-nilly because I'm typing from my brain, and am free to stare at the keys. In a typing class once... Yes, I learned how to type correctly, BUT since they didn't watch that close, for the test I looked back and forth from the text we were copying and dusted my "correct" typing method speed, heh heh.
I used to be able to pound a typewriter, but I fear if put on one now, I'd bruise my spoiled, wimpified fingers. Not to mention all the white-out incidents to numerous to mention.
EDIT: Thanks! Now I'm having flashbacks of writing by hand and then trying to type and read my handwriting—a bit like a T-Rex with a crayon—and I may have to book a therapist or consult a mobster.

I'm some sort of bizarre combination where I type at blinding speed, but I write extremely slowly. I tend to go through 4 or 5 versions in my head before it hits the page. I also type like a jackhammer. So, when I'm writing it looks a lot like me thinking for minutes at a time, fingertips on the keys, and then explosive, extremely loud, typing, followed by more silence and thinking. I rarely look at the keyboard anymore, but I also learned to type on a manual typewriter, back when we double spaced between sentences and a typo meant starting the bloody page over again. I don't miss that, and they can pry my ergonomic keyboard from my dead, cold, hands even as I rage against that last goodnight.![]()
