> They say that you remember more when handwriting than when typing

I believe that too.

Writing is one of my tools for taming my ADHD tendencies. I have journals of different sizes and when I am in the zone, I capture the moment in my own words and in my own way. I draw lines and art on my notes and just scanning a few lines on another day instantly immerses me back in the moment when the ideas/words/thought hit me.

For those who type better than they write, I don't see any reason to not do that, even though for me, it's pen on paper.

We're all different and I am a strong believer of the idiom that goes "One man's food..."
