I like your handwriting! Very youthful and whimsical. I should get over being self-conscious about mine and put up a full pencast... one of these days.

I hope the typewriter symposium goes well! Give them a chance, you'll come around yet :-)

My handwriting tends to be much better when I'm using a fountain pen or pencil than it is when I'm using a gel or ballpoint...and the smoother the gel pen, the worse my writing gets. I guess maybe it's the difference in feedback/friction? This writing sample is in smooth ballpoint (a Papermate Profile), and it's untidy enough to make me cringe a little.

As I've been typing up last year's NaNo, I've been pleasantly surprised at how neat and legible my (pencil written) handwriting is, despite the fact that I was rushing as fast as I could. Kind of an interesting study!

What I've seen of your handwriting has been lovely. I don't think you have any reason to be self-conscious about it!
