|
|
While scanning the pictures for my Moleskin gush thread, I realized that I want to know what everyone's handwriting looks like. So let's call this a "Vanity Handwriting Thread."
Meaning:
(1) You can take extra care that your handwriting's maybe neater than shorthand, but
(2) it still has to reflect your general handwriting style.
For superdouble-dog fun, write the sentence (of your choice) in both print and cursive! (But be sure to write out what you used as your sample text at the end.) I chose a short poem by Wendell Berry.
Here's my print:
And here's my (awful, oafish) cursive:
April Woods: Morning (Wendell Berry)
Birth of color
out of night and the ground.
Luminous the gatherings
of bloodroot
newly risen, green leaf
white flower
in the sun, the dark
grown absent. _________________

I had the same quest once upon a time, though I can't say my results were as attractive as yours. I'm sure I've got some of those old notes around home somewhere. I'll dig them up.
Do you use special pens?

| Adilegian, your handwriting seems better here by far than I thought it was in the moleskine thread, where I can't read what the fuck you've done. |
Yes, my intention was to obscure! When I'm working at my best, only I can comprehend morphemes from my pet ink slugs.

How so? Please tell us for free the university secrets that you paid money for!
