Stacy, so glad to hear you are doing so well these days!  Shooting for 200 means it won't be too much longer now!  I've had a nice slowdown with work.  Just in time for me to test out the new Eclipse developmental version.  So we're both excited!

Hi! Yes, I came here to see where I posted that about practicing from perfect notes, and found it on your page! One of those weird coincidences!

I think if you posted a classified ad, you'd definitely get a buyer.  Many students are interested in the ergo factor. 

Now that you have another writer, here's a paste of an old post from this site I wrote about how I passed my Certificate of Merit (RMR) at the same time as my CSR after two years and two months in full-time CR school a million years ago.

Here's how I practiced from perfect paper tape notes. I would take my lesson book which had page-long transcripts, essentially. I don't have them any more. I'm thinking there was literary and jury charge and Q and A. I'd put it next to me on a desk, then I'd stroke out perfectly one or two sentences. I'd rip the paper off, put it where I could see it easily, and while looking only at my actual strokes on the paper, keep writing those same strokes, going faster and faster. Once I was really fast and smooth, I'd move on to the next sentence or two.

If you try it, please start a new discussion and let me know if it helps you with your accuracy, speed, and readback. Jenny
