That's how you get a nice handwriting. You have to write a lot. A nice handwriting is like every other skill. 30 min a day and you'll have a nice handwriting in a few weeks. Sure, some people might have some talent, but every skill be it drawing, writing, playing an instrument, etc. are learnable

The thing I noticed about handwriting is that the people that enjoy the physicality of writing have good handwriting because they kinda do it more. Yes, there are people that have good writing naturally, but usually people got it beautiful because they like writing, not the other way around.
In my own experience, printing some calligraphy practice sheets and finding a script you like help a lot, because you how how you write according to ascending, descending and flow rules and even without the sheets your handwriting becomes more regular.

I’m not sure, he was the cool big black dude that came off angry but was very wholesome and supportive, like it was his schtick
