Several characters can be placed in a single space with a typewriter and most past Typitoons used this method.Since typewriters have been replaced with keyboards and touchpads, keyboard characters can no longer share a single space. As a result, our modern Typitoons are created as a single continuous line of characters, typed with a standard QWERTY keyboard.At first glance, a single string of characters might seem restricting, more of a disadvantage when creating Typitoons and their respective associations. But once in the process, the traits between the characters are revealed, challenging the creator to develop intriguing associations. Once these intriguing associations have been made, the Typitoons become little masterpieces, like emoticons do.NoveltyAll Typitoons are original creations by the Grabarchuk Family and delivered exclusively for Kindle.Create Your Own!Forty years ago, Martin Gardner invited his readers to create their own Typitoons.
