A man or then should I say superstar who has mastered the art of wearing multifarious hats; Tom Hanks is all set to churn out his very own anthology of short stories inspired by his rather eccentric obsession with typewriters............
Noted publishing house Alfred A. Knopf yesterday announced the fact that these stories will be remotely connected to the rather extensive and exhaustive collection of typewriters and photographs; the 58 year old Oscar winning star had accumulated during the course of his eventful life...........
Tom Hank's rather unusual and quixotic love affair with typewriters has been extensively documented at various stages of his life by various sources and the noted actor also boasts of the achievement of co-developing a writing/typewriting application for i Pads entitled "Hanx Writer".............
According to Hanks; he started collecting typewriters both manual as well as portable manufactured between the 1930's and 1990's for no other reason than they just happened to catch his fancy and even before he began to realise it he had hundreds of such machines lying under his roof.........
In a statement released to the press yesterday; Hanks said that; "the stories might not be about the various typewriters per se but more specifically about something that may have been churned out on any and each one of them by their owners/users over a period of time".........
No release date has of now been set for the anthology of short stories being authored by Hanks and the same also remains without a title; meanwhile betting houses have already started accepting bets on whether or not Hanks will take recourse to or use one or more of his cherished typewriters while conjuring up his collection of short stories.........
