I've been going along with the assumption that when we are talking strictly about handwriting, more or less, when discussing both printing and cursive. (My posts don't make any sense if I misunderstood. )

I know a lot of people that use block letters because it's more legible from them, but it is a disaster when I attempt it.

My handwriting in this journaling block is printed (but not with block letters):



My handwriting in these two journaling blocks is cursive:



I've been trying to get into the habit of using printing, rather than cursive, in my scrapbooks (these pages were made consecutively on the same day), because of the whole "cursive is going away" thing, but it's hard for me to do. I think my cursive *looks* much nicer than my printing -- I don't know about readability, but it is prettier on the page and I enjoy writing it. However, my kids -- or at least the one that *can* read -- can barely read my printing, much less my cursive, and I need to get into the habit of printing so that it becomes easier to read, nicer to look at, and quicker to perform.
