Well, I'm getting it holding my iPhone and playing this game! Can't leave it alone! It's intoxicating! We need a new medical term for the cramps in my left hand.

Scrivener is another word for a scribe, so that connection made it easy if you caught it.

I get this but I thought it was just my arthritis, my hands are riddled with it.

It's a form of dystonia, which is a neurological movement disorder causing muscle spasms and, frequently, tremors. I have dystonia in my neck, torso, hand, foot. Very painful.

I only knew this because La Scrivania is a (writing) desk in Italian.
