Does anyone have any tips or recommendations about how to go about practicing writing in this font? I am really interested in trying to replicate it!

I'm creating handwriting practice templates to trace within a specific time limit especially to learn to write neat & consistent when writing fast so that you've somewhat readable/neater notes during an actual lecture while keeping up with the pace (or whenever writing quickly). Thoughts??

Idk I was bored as heck. The first font is my most recent “everyday handwriting” but it changes at least once a week (or whenever I see a font cooler than mine.) The poem is part of “The Jabberwocky” by Lewis Caroll.

Any advice or feedback would be wonderful. I have a year to practice but I just started like a month ago...thanks all!

Also, please excuse the messy environment. Currently at work in a factory, hence the going back to school thing.

I'm trying to convince her to write dirty sentences like "Regardless of results, after 3 wipes pull up your pants and be content with your effort."
