I'm learning from "Write Now!".

Could someone with a nice Cursive Italic hand please write the word "evermore" and post a scan and commentary? I'd like to see how several of the connectors are formed.

e into v
v into e
r into e

Thanks,

Greetings John from newcomer here,
but I am reading, learning and practicing.

Today went through a 9 page search result for "cursive" in FPN Penmanship
and found some real gems.
(My apologies to original posters but unable to find again the messages that mentioned these).

Page 4 of this excerpt from Italic Handwriting Series [another Getty-Dubay publication]
demonstrates some of the connectors.

There's example of r into e.
{That's a tough one for me, also things like a>r>a. hmm1.gif
I changed my b, q, s and y when studying cursive italic years ago;
I'll see if I can also learn r a new way instead of the 3 sided box}.

No v into e shown, but assume pattern similar to x into e and v into i.

No e into v but probably like e into r and i into v.

This is from looped cursive camp,
but looks like good source for daily practice sheet 'templates.'
