The keyboard has wrecked my cursive writing—which never was particularly good, anyway.

I have noticed the very same thing about my scribbling!

Taking rapid notes by hand in college wrecked my cursive writing. Shortly after college, I had a secretary who could type over 80 wpm on an electric typewriter with loooong fake nails. At the next job, I dictated reports so never regained decent handwriting.

In college I found to my dismay that I simply couldn’t read my own notes. There was nothing for it, painful as it was, but to switch over from cursive to printing. From that time to this, I simply don’t do cursive, apart from my signature.
