I find Morning Pages to be very helpful, not only for my writing, as I like to write fiction, but with my journaling, and also, it keeps me in practice with my cursive. As I write more and more, I'm noticing subtle changes with my style. I have to be careful not to let bad habits creep in.

Does anyone else feel they have to keep an eye on their handwriting so they don't start slipping?

I usually use a fast "r" but reading is harder, so I'm using the slower one, but adding in fast Ts.

Would love to know what you think.

I don't write in block print, but perhaps I should use it more often. I made some mistakes because I'm not used to writing in that method, but I see how easily legible it is, I should certainly consider using it more often.

Which if my three styles do you find most legible?

Shot on a D3s, 24mm f2.8 at f5.6 or f8 (going by memory.)

Haven't used these in years, but admittedly, over the past month or so I've really gained a new appreciation for how utilitarian and useful they are. The writing experience is quite good.

Thoughts?

I drafted this out without slowing to write out the forms. I let my muscle memory do the work. The script is large, my natural inclination. I also did this in pencil because pencil is tactile and easier for me.

Would love to know anyone's thoughts. How legible do you find this to be and do you have any general thoughts on my style of penmanship?

Thanks.

Been reading old letters from 1920, hence the little nickname today.

I know my hand is not the most easily readable, however, when it comes to one's handwriting style, it's very difficult to radically change, so I'm experimenting with legibility by making small changes that I can accomplish easily without radically changing the fundamental way I write, and I'm doing this by spacing out the letters and words more, and that's what I'm after in the comments on this one.

When I set out to learn cursive six months ago, I used the palmer business model and I went through all the drills of the anual, and this is what has my personal handwriting has come to. I'm satisfied with it, and I can read my own hand quite easily, however, people tend to have some difficulty in places, particularly with my r, n, m and u lowercase letters. Still working on those.

But in the meantime, let's take a look at this and let me know what you think. For this post I'm less interested on how to fix those little problem letters. I'm aiming more for small changed as earlier described to bump up my legibility a few percentage points. I feel it succeeds, however, it's hard to judge from my own perspective.

I appreciate your time.

I think I do an all right job of keeping the words in serviceable lines. Maybe...

I like 4B pencils and check pencils. The check pencil has a long history, and use in wartime as well.

Excuse the terrible writing, but it was shaky on the train.

Does anyone else make entries on the go or is it just me?

I have reams of paper just like this. Sometimes I'll do five or more sheets just like this on both sides. I guess it's a little quirk of mine to crosshatch with the blue and red to get just a little more use out of the paper.

I'm enjoying the use of a lot of high quality Japanese pencils.
