Old-fashioned writers, also known as SCRIBES (7 letters), were individuals who wrote by hand in the pre-typewriter era. They were often employed to copy manuscripts, documents, and other texts, and were highly skilled in calligraphy and handwriting. SCRIBES were also responsible for creating illuminated manuscripts, which were decorated with intricate designs and illustrations. Old-fashioned writers were an important part of history, as they helped to preserve knowledge and culture through their written works.
