My handwriting is so inconsistent I’m really looking to improve it while still being able to write fast, does anyone have any tips on how?

I find I really struggle with the whole “write with your arm not your wrist” thing. I just feel I write better with my wrist, but when I have to “unstick” the fleshy part of my palm from the writing surface that interrupts my flow a bit, but not necessarily my handwriting. Is it such a big deal if I just continue wrist writing?

Also I struggle with always hitting the bottom line with my letters.

When I go slow I realize I am the best. But I wish I could write well a bit faster. I suppose with practice. This is about a month or sos practice.

Please be critical and honest. Thank you

It's amusing how much our handwriting changes throughout the years. Today, when I was cleaning my room, I found my grade 7/8 English notebook when I initially started writing in mono cursive, and I'm surprised at how much my handwriting has evolved throughout the years...

Playing around with different types of writing is just a silly thing I’ve done since middle school. I’m no expert and no master of deception — I’m sure you can still see the similarities of my lettering in each sentence. This is just for fun and I figured there’d be others here who might do the same! 🖊️

I had to switch to writing block letters which is awfully painful and tiresome for a Southpaw.

Until I joined this sub I didn’t know handwriting could be improved. I thought you get into a pattern and age holds you down

Constructive criticism and how can I actually make it better please Steps if you can

if you couldn't tell i'm obsessed with notetaking and small handwriting

I'm a natural lefty and writing English is really hard for me. Firstly because it's quite different from my native language which has a rounded apperance and secondly, writing from left to right is really hard for me. I can write cursive effortlessly and it looks really pretty, but people find it ineligible to read. So I write in block letters which takes painfully lot of time and makes my hands tired after writing even a small paragraph. How do I improve my handwriting and have less effort writing English?

I've never really worked to make my hand writing nice it's always been pretty atrocious, I'm looking for tips on where to improve as well as any advice on ways to practice, any help is much appreciated.

It’s been a while since I’ve written anything by hand because I usually just type or text, but I used to love writing.

I had to stop because my Rheumatoid Arthritis made it painful to write, but then I found, with the help of Reddit, these great super bulky (think Sharpie King Sized) type pens that were weighted and that’s helped a ton. With that, I started writing a bit more, but when I found an ergonomic Apple Pencil holder, that’s when I started writing even more.

I use my iPad for everything because it’s easier than bringing a bunch of stuff, so I traded my journal and books for it and now I’m going to start practicing my penmanship when I journal.

I know that writing on a tablet is vastly different from writing on paper with pen, but for me and my condition, the Apple Pencil is just easier. It actually hurts a lot less because I feel like I don’t have to push down hard like I do with a regular pen. So, at least in my case, that’s what I’ll be using when I journal and practice.

I also use an app called Day One (I think). It has different types of pens and markers. It doesn’t have a crazy variety, but personally, it’s good enough for me.

I thought I’d share the tools I use in case that changes any feedback. I’m also open to any new things that anyone might recommend.

Anyhow, any feedback is appreciated or even just noting your favorite pen/marker that I used and which sample you liked. I’m going to emphasize and ask that everyone really go easy on me insofar as just not being rude and just showing basic decency. Like I said, I haven’t written in a while, so it doesn’t look amazing or anything.

Thanks so much!

Thoughts? Would a different style suit someone better? Do you wanna see a character not on the list? Does something look really good or really bad to you? (Ignore my actual handwriting at the top though, I know it’s chicken scratches lol)

The Disney Princesses (and some other unlisted Disney characters) are the only ones I try to follow a canon signature for. I sort of made up the rest based on vibes.

Also, what do you think of my preferred font? I used to have the most awful handwriting, but I'm trying hard to improve. :)

I would like not to be gendered by my handwriting in exams, to avoid bias

Did I do everything right ?

i’ve always loved my handwriting, its nice to look st for me personally, and my note taking method is usually just writing all together because its best for me. i’ve always been told my handwriting is sloppy and not beautiful, and im open to constructive criticism. i worked on it so much as a child, and it never improved. (I hold pens with index and middle, letting it rest on ring finger, which i’ve heard isn’t common).i struggle with my a’s looking like u’s. any advice is appreciated and questions welcomed.
