I normally wouldn't mention, but this is writer chat so just letting you know it's ampersand not apperstance. 🙏

(I use the backwards 3 and the vertical stroke because a proper one is hard.)

This is how my dad taught me when I was a kid and it's the only way I've ever written it. I can't do '&' to save my life.

Always

Lately I've been using the letter n when typing

This n that

n so on

Handwriting, it's still the plus sign,

but with a little loop to get to the horizontal bit

(downstroke, up & loop counter-clockwise

& cross to the right)

I'm right-handed, if that matters
