Mine doesn't look much better than my 13 year old brother's.

When I was in school, it always eluded me as to how other girls my age had such pretty handwriting.

Mine is terrible because I press down too hard on pens/pencils so sometimes they break.

I write deliberately, so mine gets fairly fine... i also practiced fairly much, I would look at other people's handwriting and like how they made their g's or z's so i would copy them and practice until i had it right. i was obsessed with handwriting i guess, which brought my writing up from elementary school level to normal level...

if i had started at normal level i would have beautiful handwriting, because i would study calligraphy books as well... i just can't do them...

Mine is good if I apply myself. However, I am much faster typing so I usually just use a laptop.

I have the handwriting of an 8 year old child. It doesn't matter if I go slowly or carefully, it just looks like a child trying to forge their parent's handwriting. So I don't bother, it would take too long to just make it a tiny bit better.

When I was elementary school, they noticed my handwriting was bad so they gave me extra handwriting homework that no one else had to do. I forget which grade, but we were definitely past learning how to write. I did the extra work (it was mostly just writing out the same letter over and over again, while paying careful attention to its shape), unfortunately it never did a damn bit of good.

It's neat when I try to be.
Printed, handwritten tech-manual style.

Never did too well with cursive, so when trying to go fast this odd print/cursive/shorthand hybrid that sometimes only I can make out results.

Mine's a beautiful, elegant, cursive script. I practised a lot until I perfected it. I like forming the letters and writing, it makes me happy the way they appear on the page... I get a kind of rush from it.

Mine is pathetic, it is so bad that even when teachers want us to write stuff out, they let me type it so they can read what I write. I am a very good typist, so that is good for me AND them.

I have to concentrate to make my handwriting really tidy, but I still only manage about eight or nine words per line because my letters are so large.

My parents actually had me going to a handwriting tutor when I was younger, but that didn't really help :(
