No, you're not an exception.

I personally discovered that writing things down helps me think about them. I take copious notes for meetings and phone calls.

I've tried typing instead, but there's something about dragging a pen across the page that makes my brain work. Some others have the opposite experience.

"Why the hell you doing that," is what everyone asks. I didn't always, I just found it helped.

Eventually, I found I hated my handwriting so much I went to the trouble of doing some drills to improve it.
