Typing has an amazing effect on the VS brain and wiring - I would thoroughly reccommend it to any VS as an alternative to writing by hand where-ever possible.

Not to suggest that VS shouldnt learn to write by hand at all - its not about avoiding any area of weakness completely but rather, its about not training VS to "struggle against their weaknesses" by keeping a balance that is more constructive.

Typing has a wonderful affect in the VS brain and mind ... it builds up the neurological pathways that allows one to be seeing both that which is before us and that which is a product of our minds and use both simultaneously. The tapping of fingers on the keyboard enables us to "see timing" - and it gives the time concept "sense".

But not just any sort of typing .... we need to be typing our own "thoughts".

Also, the more one types ones own thoughts, the more we develop an "alternative" form of "automation .... that is the fingers learn how to "translate" the imagery into words without having to "stop and think" about what word/s to use or how to spell them.

Perhaps you should do something about that secret desire of yours Rebecca - you may be surprised at the results.
