Practice typing by retyping ENTIRE classic novels - Fortunate - Sep 13, 2020
Just saw this site pop up on reddit, I'm definitely going to put it in use and tought you guys might like it as well.
I personally like reading novels and improving my typing speed.

Will you try this out? Seems very cool.
I'm currently typing the The Call of Cthlu chapters since I've never read them. This is really good for me especially since English isn't my first language and I'm always up for better vocab.

Never heard of it before, but it sounds cool. It definitely would be a good tool to practice with.

Thought about using it, but doesn't work for me personally.
My WPM sits around 145-150. But typing that fast requires me to disable comprehend-reading and just scan over text like a robot lol.
So for me it would be normal typing. I think it's a wonderful idea tho, could really help you improve.

Pretty cool. Seems like a great way to actually absorb what you're reading.

That's nice, I was pretty bad with the Lovecraft novels, a lot of new words that I couldn't spell and easily got out of track.

That's a really cool way to experience a book. Moreover, I think it will help me improve my English as the non-native speaker that I am.
