The Writer Who Could Not Read

Loved this short little story. Imagine waking up and realizing that you can't read. But since the eyes only sees the words and letters and brain detects them as words and sentences he had to to be creative to find a way to write.

"Engel couldn't see words with his eyes. His visual cortex was broken. But he could "see" when he used the motor part of his brain, first by tracing letters on a page, then by "writing" those same letters in the air, and then, strangely, when he shifted to copying letters with his tongue on the roof of his mouth. Tongue-copying was the fastest.

From here.
