Nice. My handwriting is said to be beautiful, and friends crane their necks when I'm writing to see. However, it's too small for people to read, and somewhat old-fashioned cursive which makes it hard to read again. This is good for me, to some extent, as I consider my writing only for me! This is backfiring somewhat as my eyesight ages. I don't write to read it again, though, so it's fine for now. When I write letters to friends, I always include a typed-up printout so friends have the pleasure of receiving a hand-written missive, but they can also read it!

When I write on tablets and boards, I use a much simpler handwriting style, usually neat capitals, so I have writing for me and writing for others.

The main thing that kills penmanship is a lack of practice, like playing guitar. I think Nile Rodgers said, if I don't practice for a day, I know it. If I don't practice for two days, my band knows it, and if I don't practice for three days, the audience knows it. Maybe it was Pat Metheny, but the point holds for me. If I don't write in my diary for a few days, the writing isn't as smooth and fluid. But when I have been writing like a beast, the words flow like anything onto the paper.

Hard to find time to pick up a pen for pleasure.
