This isn't really penmanship however it's legible if a bit uneven and unsteady. Practice letterforms over and over and over and write more and then more and then even more. Write slowly and concentrate when you practice, this will slowly seep into your everyday writing and you will get better and faster.

Any suggestions?

 

How old are you? Still in school?

I'd say it's legible, but could do with more consistency and a nice rhythm or flow. Which direction would you like to go? I can imagine you could develop this into a nice italic or cursive italic handwriting.

journaling / tinkering with pens / sailing / photography / software development

I've increased my penmanship a lot since I've made this thread =D. I will be posting pics soon and yes, I am still in school =D.

Practice writing slowly, concentrating on the shape of each letter, as you desire it to appear. This should not be difficult,

as you seem to have a steady hand. Practice can be boring, so write by hand, slowly, whenever you can >>>

* grocery lists

* things TO-DO lists

* write letters to people

Along with this, I'll suggest trying out a Cursive Italic or Cursive hand. Once you get the rhythm right, you'll notice writing faster only adds flair to your writing.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
