Hi, I am Moetypes, Morgan Olivia, Elmer, and the owner of Vintage Verse. I’m 13 years old and enjoy poetry, family, friends, music, and typewriters. 

December 25, 2022 was when typewriters changed my life. It all started with an Underwood from 1947 and since then I have gathered another 30 or so!

I have typed the Calico Print in the Telegraph Office at Calico Ghost Town for Calico and California Days. I have also typed at different pop-up events and held Type-Ins and Workshops at amazing venues—including: Inspired Gifts, Stardust Boutique, Sweet Treasure Shack,  Wildgoose Vintage, Upland Art Walk and Hwy 62 Art Tours with L.A. Marler.  Meeting a myriad of amazing humans has led to several custom-projects and In 2023, my short story poem  “Robot Pigeon” in collaboration with my Tía Holly’s Assemblage Robot Frame, and QR Code to link into Pigeon Art at pigeonart.xyz  was shown at  The Hive Gallery in Downtown Los Angeles.   I have entered my current project, “Watercolor Typewriter ” for their December 2024 Art Show.  My Science Fair project, “What Typewriter Types Faster?” made it to the county level, placing 3rd!  While visiting France last summer, I typed under the Eiffel Tower after procuring a French Language machine at a local antique shop.  My adventures continued to the TypOsphere L. A. Marler Art Gallery in St. Louis where I held a Type-in, met a typewriter repairman, Dave,  and even got to sleep in the museum!

When I am not typing, I am playing guitar, piano, or tennis; hanging out with my dog, Harmony; working on school assignments, especially ASB (Associated Student Body) ; or watching the latest shows!
