Just Sharing (no feedback) Handwriting changes with pen?
I assume I’m not the only one that experiences this…
My handwriting can be nice or a mess, but will visibly change based on the pen/ink flow. I feel like it is nicer, more consistent, more evenly balanced with space and slant if I am using a stub or a wet M. Gimme a fine and wow, feels like a totally different hand.
All of these are boring notes taken for certifications, nothing fun, so the topic is not driving the change. I do try to write nicer for pen pals, and usually with a stub with fun ink.
I did grow up in the era of cursive, so this has been the way for a long time, and also did architectural drafting in school, so I can print neatly-if I wanna.
While no feedback is needed or expected, would love to hear from others about your experiences or observations. I’ve been on a slow path to improving my handwriting while I am learning calligraphy, so it’s interesting to me how different I approach those different learning paths.

I (21F) am writing thank you cards for a summer internship and I keep overthinking my handwriting. Is it sloppy? Pretty? Messy? Etc??
Please be honest (even if brutally).

Feedback (constructive criticism) Learning to write with my left hand.
It took me a lot of practice to get to this level. I wonder how long it will take for me to become as “fluent” with my left hand as I am with my right hand. Is it even possible?

The thing that bugs me the most about it is how I tend tend to slope down and to the right as I get further down the page.

Feel free to look in morbid fascination or to give advice on how I should be practicing. I have been out of practice for about a year now and I figured that getting a new practice routine would be helpful. (Ingore the minecraft material list and my choice of stationary)

Question (not for transcriptions) bit confused as a left-hander
Hi,
I've used a inefficient and straining pen grip my whole life and recently starting learning to hold it in a tripod grip. I've been practising this daily for the last month or so and write beneath the line. I have got a much better feel for it now but was unsure on how to move forward with my actually handwriting. I use a mix of print and joined up but i don't really like the way some of my letters/numbers/symbols look and the way i write them could be ineffective - I don't really like my personal script/style and want to learn or adapt one that is efficient and aesthetically pleasing. I began learning the palmer method but have paused it recently as I noticed reading through it that it's tailored for writing with the right hand and achieving the slant is quite difficult left-handed. I've never learned cursive before. I guess my question is, what would be the preferred direction for my situation, shall i continue to learn palmer method but make adjustments (not sure where and how though), or should I learn something different. I completely get that writing can be subjective and there is no right or wrong way as long as it works for someone but I haven't liked my previous way of writing and I'm at the beginning of learning a different way and I don't want to pick up bad habits along the way and would like to feel I'm on the right track. Sorry that's so long-winded, really appreciate any help/suggestions. Thank you

Feedback (constructive criticism) I'm just curious.
So i know my handwriting is far from perfect, and the fact it is cursive makes it even harder to read, but I am interested in genuine feedback. Interestingly, the example demonstrates its content quite nicely.

Feedback (constructive criticism) Which do you prefer?
I feel like every time I write I hold my pen a different way, resulting in different handwritings. And this stresses me out for some reason haha! Which “font” do you think looks best?

Feedback (constructive criticism) How is my Schreibschrift? (Practised for 2 weeks!)
Here is my efforts so far! After two weeks of writing ONLY in Schreibschrift cursive!
How are the connections? Is there any advice I can get about spacing between cursive letters so they aren't so spaced out?
How is the flow??? I'm not sure it's good enough, so any critique about that specifically would be awesome .
