Can you read my hand well enough to ID the book from these quotes?
Is that okay? Can I change something? What do you think about it?
I’m really struggling with certain letter combinations such as in “any” which seem to not look right to me. Is there any possible suggestions that could help me to make this word more legible? I just feel like you can hardly read it unless you kind of have an idea of what it’s meant to say.
Tell me is it readable...i written it in school just posting random photo from my English notebook. Tell me
So I have been trying to write in cursive again when I got a fountain pen in September. My cursive has been through different styles, but now I have landed on a good style (for me at least).
Nothing much, just watching Bridgerton S1E1. No subs, so felt like writing down what I heard in a segment, as a non-Eng speaker lol. I wonder how I can improve my cursive (this is my running handwriting as well).
i almost never use print unless i have to but im wondering if people can read my cursive 🤷♀️
I started journaling this year. That led to wanting to improve my handwriting. I almost never write anymore other than scribbling my signature on a credit card receipt. Shockingly, it was much like riding a bike!
So I recently learned about Vere Foster's Civil Service Script that was taught in the UK in the late 19th century to the mid-20th century. I think it looks wonderful and want to learn it but i can't find full instruction for it (only random copybooks with maybe a little info). Do you know where i can find the copybooks that specifically taught this script to students in the 1940s (in full)? Any help is much appreciated!
I only learned this week, via a post from u/tomorrows-dream, that cursive can have a significanclt benefit for some people with dyslexia and dysgraphia
Trying my hand at calligraphy styled fonts using a flex nib. The spacing and flow need a lot of work. Suggestions for improvement are most welcome.
Ignore the random ramble about the kingsman guy
for those who aren’t able to read it, my handwriting has developed a tad-bit neater over the years as my first year at university, my professor’s claimed my handwriting was “unreadable” so instead of writing every assignment, i was typing them out instead.
Copying the U.S. Constitution by hand: Day 8 (of however long it takes).
I would love to write more legibly when I’m not consciously thinking to myself “I should write legibly so this person can read it”, haha. I know my r’s definitely need improvement. And, looking at the pic instead of the paper, I feel like my letters are pretty uneven but i’m not sure what I should practice to help with that. Any constructive criticism and advice is welcome! Thank you all!
I put feedback on in case anyone wants to offer any. But just wanted to show my cursive and see what people thought of it. Have a great day and God bless!
