I'm right handed now. But until I was in infant school (ummmmm about 6.5 years old) I was left handed. The teacher decided she didnt like the left handed kids writing that way (there were 3 of us) as it "upset the way the class looked" is what she apparently told my MUm (I dont really remeber the details now....I'm a LOT older!). So she rectified it by tying our left arms behind our backs and making us write with our right hands. Apparently, most right handed people lead with the left hand sides of their brains, and vice versa. Im right handed and lead with the right!! Weird!
I write my best poetry (according to my family) when a cluster starts. Obviously once it really picks up I cant even bear to talk, but until then I can write pages! Same with the stories!
Cant explain it though.
Take care and God bless,
Tracy
