I love writing. Fiction, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, blogging, even my memoir. But at least as much as the topic, I love writing cursive or playing with lettering, calligraphy. I don’t like the modern stuff but rather

I love to practice

Or

To me writing is artwork. My handwriting lately (or the fast note writing during lectures) is horrible. But I like to take my time and enjoy writing. Even grocery lists.
But having the best hand writing in the house means only I can write the lists. I’m not bragging. My guys here would write a list so fast that even they can’t read it, much less if there’s a note, like, not the one with salt, or the crispy kind not soggy, you know what I mean?
But that means I’m stopping whatever I’m doing to write the list. So I got upset having to drop my knitting or jumping off the stationary bike to write the list.
Instead, my husband set up a shared Keep app list we add to as we go along.
More organized, efficient.
But now I need to find other reasons to practice my ABCs.
Guilt trip jumps in here. I need to write more letters to friends and family. I’ll think about it. Again.
Time to get writing.












My handwriting was never very elegant, but when I was Escrow for a few years, my handwriting could rival a doctors. It’s barely improved since then.
As I mentioned to Willow, I think it is interesting that we all learned the cursive from the same charts and yet everyone’s writing turns out differently. I think that is why there is such a thing as Graphologists.
I guessed you’d have beautiful handwriting, you are so artistic…mine is readable….just 💜👍
Everyone writes faster than me. If it wasn’t for little pictures I doodle on the notes, I wouldn’t have gotten good grades in school or college. But speeding up I can’t read my writing. I did take a sort of shorthand in school that helps if I remember it. It is interesting that we all took the same cursive classes and everyone’s hand does it differently, don’t you think?💜💕
Yep! That’s why I’m the one to do the Christmas cards, lol!
Me, too, if they get done. This year only four went out. 😢
Oh cool! I’m glad to hear someone else besides me likes to write in different styles and practice. It’s fun! And, I’m the one adding little describing notes to the grocery list, like you mentioned. 🙂
I’m glad I’m not alone! That stringy, squishy stuff should not come home! Hurray for pretty writing! 🤗
