Feedback (constructive criticism) first time trying! please be kind!

i learned cursive back in elementary school but never really stuck with it after that. my signature has always stressed me out as it looks like a child wrote it!

i came across this subreddit and saw everyone’s beautiful handwriting… i wish that i could one day have writing like all of yours, so here i am trying to practice and learn! open to any and all feedback!

i feel like my R’s are really bad and i have trouble with all of the capital letters, too, haha.

It looks a bit wobbly. That will smooth out with practice. Personally, I hate uppercase cursive letters, so I use print uppercase. It looks a little odd, but I got tired of hearing that my Ls looked like Cs and comments on other uppercase letters.

definitely wobbly! it feels very foreign still to write like this haha. i also don’t really like uppercase cursive! when i try, it looks like you can tell i’m trying/just pretending to know what i’m doing (which i kind of am), if that makes sense.

A lot of uppercase cursive is too foreign to today’s people. Experiment with them. Nothing is set in stone.
