What is SpaceFN and why you should give it a try
The SpaceFN concept - setting up your space key as a layer switch when held - is probably one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby. Let me explain how it works. My SpaceFN article on kbd.news made some rounds recently - quite surprisingly given the age of this concept. This piece you're reading is a condensed version of the full post. If you're left with unanswered questions, you'll most likely find the info you're looking for in the original write-up. On my imaginary top list of the most useful keyboard features, tweaks and hacks, SpaceFN would deserve a podium finish for sure. But what makes it so special?

Writing is by no means an easy way to make a living, especially when you're doing it after a long day at work. So I applaud you for having your first book published. My first book is still on its way to being published, should be another couple months or so. Still have the cover to design and the interior to layout but I'm in the homestretch.
Writing has always been a passion of mine too and it has distinct advantages over working a "normal" job - I get to set my own hours, I don't get late night phone calls and have to come into work because something important has failed, I get to work from home and thus am able to hang out with my dog all day. And I love it. I wouldn't want to do anything else.
Oh well. On to the new frontier of dumb and dumber.
