“All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you: the good and the bad, the ectasy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer” (Old Newsman Writes, from Esquire (December 1934)
Can it be? Instead of holding his fingers on the keys like Mrs. Hath taught us, Hemingway seems to be using the hunt and peck method.

Didn’t notice that. He was a journalist as well as a novelist.
