My handwriting


Cangrejito

Recommended Posts

My handwriting is sometimes too small for the pens I have, so the "e" doesn't have the little space inside it sometimes, same goes with "l". And I also noticed that my "n" and sometimes the "m" looks like "u"s. I didn't know what to write, so I just wrote the first verse of one of my favourite songs. Any suggestions?

All pens will dictate how you may write. Eg, I bought a Graf and the nib was such that I had to write huge so the e's etc wouldn't fill in. I had them change the nib to fine and bingo, problem solved. Your nib seems quite broad. Write bigger.

Your handwriting looks good to me, I don't see anything wrong with it. It's very nice writing (imo).

Very legible and quite a balanced hand. I agree, though, that with a nib of that size, you'll have to write larger. It's that, or go to a finer nib. Or perhaps both. I'm find practicing with some of each quite helpful.

I came here for the pictures and stayed for the conversation.

another vote for "if it ain't broke don't fix it". I like your hand.........

"how do I know what I think until I write it down?"

I forgot to add that my favourite pen will not do some of the fine work I want so for that I use a Nakaya or my Namiki.

Just to qualify('cause we do have some word police here) that by favourite I mean the one I want to be with most, despite its flaws : and that will vary for everybody

Thanks

Your handwriting is a 100 times better than mine. I HAVE to write slow, so I can read it. Good choice of songs by the way.

Same here. Nice, readable, clean. Even the blue looks great!.

I like your hand writing. I have the same issue with e's and some loops that you do. For business writing I use a fine nib for that reason. For pleasure writing or for letters I use a medium nib and write a little larger.

I have to agree with the others. Your handwriting is clear and easy to read. The only changes you might consider are trying a finer nib or writing a little larger.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
