I don't get it! Need some help here..

I have been practising on and off for around one & half months now. I have tried almost everything (maybe trying too much here) but nothing seems to bring the kind of polish or finish I see in other peoples' writings. The same style when tried by others seems to excite me a lot more than my own🤧🥲. I know its a LOT OF PRACTICE on their part, but come on man, atleast I deserve some sort of improvement in my writing for the time & effort I put in😔... I dont even seem to have got the hang of the spacing, sizing or even the form of my letterforms. Desperately looking for some direction here, PLEASE what do I do !??

Writing Journey Update

https://preview.redd.it/gxsd3znpq1gh1.jpg?width=4036&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2a4772152abba909c8a1c2fefd35de0e0c3b0fb8

Thanks to you all, I started investing some time to correct my writing form and lettering and I could finally grasp the technique of writing with light pressure on the pen. It's still very hard and stressful but now I feel motivated enough to see where this goes...

However, I need some tips on how to control my range of motion and stretch it across the margins of the page, right now my writing tends to shrink at or near the margis. I feel like I can't write a whole line without lifting my arm and adjusting it to cover the complete lines of the page. Also, as I reach near the end of the page, I can't write without adjusting my pen-hold as well as my arm at the table. Anything that might help with this please.... 🙏🏼🤧

Just Daily Practice

Just got motivated looking at others doing their level best and thought to try and practice for once to improve on my form....had to scribble that twice to get it right (atleast what seemed right to me🤪)

Need For Speed !!

I have started to get the hang of the letters though I can't write 'K' properly as of now. The bigger issue is that the writing and neatness goes for a toss, every time I try to speed up. Any suggestion to help with this would be godsend.

Trying out the JetPens style

Loved the JetPens script and was trying to incorporate that in my daily writing, you tell me how it turned out.

Also, heard a lot of good things about the Jetstream, so much so that I now have a bunch of these, but, though the ink is great, the flow is not as smooth as I expected. Any ideas on how to improve that?

Also, I was trying to speed write, but can't say I have managed a good speed yet, any ideas, so that I can balance both form and function are welcome cause I don't want to go back to my old writing, that SXCKED REAL BAD!
