Put It On My Tab…

It’s a bittersweet feeling to change the tabs on my typewriter because I’ve finished the limited series screenplay I’ve been working on for the last several years, and now I’m back to narrative prose.

And yes, to change the tabs on my Smith-Corona Silent, I have to open a panel on the back of the carriage and manually move clips from the tab positions used for scripts to the tab positions used for narrative prose.
