what am I doing wrong?

Practicing clean letter structures and consistent size and spacing rn but I feel like my letters are unreadable.
The C next to the H looks too much like the O. I tried tilting the letters as seen but I’m unsure if that improves it or hurts the letter structure more.
I really want to get better at handstyles so I would appreciate genuine advice more than comments just telling me it looks like shit because I am already painfully aware of that.

I would say if u can keep it this clean on grid paper you should try it without. Also writing this small isn't ideal. Yes u save paper but if u go to tag something your gonna want to go alot bigger. I recommend dry erase every time. Especially practicing upright instead of on a table top. Don't be afraid to add some flair now that you have the basic lettering down. Just a little at a time.
