My First Hand Written Post

Welcome to my first post in the Hand Written community. It is a brand new community here on Hive created by holoz0r. I like the idea for this community because it makes posts feel more personal. When I was in school and college decades ago I wrote on paper so much each day that I would sometimes get a blister on my middle finger. So much paperwork is done online today that I rarely get to practice writing on paper. I do everything from taxes to car registration online.

My third grade teacher taught the class cursive and encouraged us to use it in all the writing that we did. I followed this advice for many years until I was in high school. Then I began worrying about people not being able to read my writing and switched my writing back to normal print. I do think that my cursive was prettier than my normal print. I got plenty of compliments from teachers for my cursive. I also think that my normal print has been going downhill over the years. Most of the pen and paper writing I do is for stuff only I am going to read such as a shopping list or rough draft of a Hive post. That is it for now. Thanks for reading!
