my handwriting is terrible, im dyslexic but that doesnt excuse how scrawly my writing is when im writing at speed. i have given up trying to improve it. so long as what you write has decent grammar and spelling and is at least legible i wouldnt worry too much. some of the worst offenders of poor handwriting are dr's!

oddly blue pens seem to make mine less like a spider crawled across the page.

I used to have great hand writing but I suffered a stroke a few years ago and now I write like a 10 year old. A good pen may help you but being 15, it may be difficult to consciously change the way you write which is an action normally taken for granted as it comes naturally. Strengthening your hand muscles will help too.

I would suggest investing in a good quality pen, like parker or even just a pack of liquid gel pens so you want do write neater. Also, i would spend less time typing on the computer. I know it tends to be quicker, but you can't get neater without practice. I hope this helped!

My mother learned a handwriting in as a child in a method called "Palmer" which is a beautiful flowing circular script that is almost unreadable.



In her forties she bought a book on italic handwriting by Alfred Fairbanks. With practice every day, she adopted a pretty and very readable script in one summer.



It is more than just copying letter and having a good pen. You must learn how to move. It would be like learning to walk all over again, but it's worth the effort.

I just want to let you know i have exactly the same thing. I'm 28 now but my writing is so poor. Looks like a 6 year olds writing. It's the one thing i get embarrassed about. I have my own company and my own house but i still regret not being able to write nicely. But i do find black pens work better for me. Don't really know why.

your not alone. I have a sloppy hand writing as well especially when I write fast. Though when I write slow, i can write relatively well. A pen definitely helps. Practice a lot.

A good pen MAY help but when they say practice makes perfect, they really mean it. Nowadays, actual penmanship doesn't count in the REAL world. (In school yes) But when doing college applications and forms, you can always type that. But to answer your question, PRACTICE, PRACTICE,PRACTICE! Works every time! :)
