We had penmanship. Mine was always terrible. My mom said I would be a great doctor someday. Somehow I survived. Now they don’t even teach it. Swell. Actually, when I DO write, it’s usually an ungodly combination of printing and cursive that somehow turns out to be readable, at least by me.

Like you I tend to combine lettering with cursive. Unlike you I am complemented on my handwriting. Being a mechanics draftsman and technical illustrator doesn’t hurt.

When Obama was first elected President, the White House hired a half-dozen "calligraphers". What we didn't know, was that Arabic is written in "calligraphy". (!)
