    I actually knew this double-tap trick! I’ve been sort of off the grid lately, just not having enough time to visit my favorite blogs as much as I like. Imagine my delight when I saw your 3part series with tips for how to type faster! You never disappoint, Amy. There’s always such good stuff here. Sharing to my buffer feed. Thanks!
