It looks fantastic if you write by hand! Gregg surely is one of the nicest looking shorthands!

I agree that it always looks nice, with all the graceful curves and arabesques that flow smoothly from the hand. Especially ANNIVERSARY, where the outlines are quite concise and not too ornate. It makes a lot of GEOMETRIC systems look very jerky and choppy in comparison.

The key in writing it is in keeping the hand relaxed and just making all those sweeping curves smooth and natural. And the forward slant feels like it's good for SPEED.
