    The only time I write in cursive is when I'm signing something.

    Me thinks keyboards have ruined our handwriting because we seldom need to write stuff with pen and paper.

    Anyway, Sprout's handwriting is the best so far, but keep trying everyone. Prince, knowing how lazy you are you probably won't get a pen anytime soon so write on a foggy mirror and show us nao.

    This. My handwriting has gone to hell in a handbasket, since I started using keyboards regularly and have not been using handwriting nearly as much.

    Ok, I was gonna post this in the art thread anyway to test Peru's theory. (I will learn to draw and then post my second attempt at this in a month.) So - my art skills and best handwriting.

    My handwriting sucks. I wish it was as good as what I see here. I did used to like doing calligraphy in my early teens though. I had one if those Shaeffer calligraphy kits I bought from Argos.

    That is really nice, that's what I aim for when I write, but it comes out.......let's say a little skewed.
