Long ago when fast travel or communication meant that the horses were well feed, or the wind was in the right direction. In that time empires spanned the world and people born in places where far away was the next village. These travelers moved to the over side of the planet, toured the massiveness of continents, or just moved to the closest city. During that time most people were strangers in a strange land, both literally and figuratively.
In those times the writing slopes (Lap Desks) were designed and built by the craftsmen of the time to link you to the world, and to home. Wherever you found yourself, you could go to your slope prepare your paper, pens, and ink and write (communicate).
For many it was that one constant, that rock to cling to at a distant shore. They were designed for communicating over large distances — they were the laptop computers of their age. See the different crafts, purposes, and stories they tell. Find one that suits you and give it new purpose. Many generations have done so before you.
