As a radiologist, I’m a visual person. As a general rule, if I can’t sketch something out, or draw a figure, then I don’t understand it. I carry a pen and pocket journal everywhere I go to sketch out my ideas and take notes. After all, the pen is a tool for thinking.
I’m also addicted to writing in the margins of books and magazines. I consider it as an ongoing conversation with the writer, and the margins are often where I conduct my best improvised thinking.
Finally, I love manual typerwriters. I have two originals that are a dream to use: a 1948 Royal, and a 1958 Olympia. They are amongst my most prized possessions.
Sketching. Writing. Drawing. It’s all immensely fun.
