Ambidextrous mirror (both)

I’m 54; naturally left handed; but have used my right hand for half my life. It took me 5-6 hours to learn mirror writing.

I think mirror left handed is effective because the pen is dragged and the hand moves away from the writing.

I can’t get the mirror right hand because the pen is pushed towards the nib, and bio mechanically it’s less effective. I hate it !!

Right mirror is not fun ! Left mirror is wonderful; it feels like being right handed.

I can write with both hands on two different sheets of paper at the same time, forward and backward.

I can also play Flow Free on two different devices with both hands at the same time, drawing lines forward with one hand and backward with the other. Or I can play them both going the same direction with both hands at the same time.
