I was born a natural left-hander, but was forced to be right-handed my mother (a lefty!) and by my schoolteachers. My handwriting, even my printing, has always sucked.
How frequently do you find yourself writing or printing?
Hard to say, but not very often.
Do you enjoy writing?
No, but I'm a voracious note-taker.
How do you feel about the quality of your cursive?
It sucks.
Are you bothered by others' penmanship?
No.
Did you have to take an assigned penmanship course?
No, but I was graded on handwriting in elementary school.
At what age did you stop focusing on your writing legibility?
I don't recall exactly, but probably as soon as I started junior high, N/K/A middle school.
Have you trained yourself in caligraphy or other artsy writing forms?
No.
Do you feel that handwriting is a dying art?
Definately.
