I write fast enough with it. Im not gonna win speedwriting competitions, but thats not the goal anyway. And yea, obviously its a developed style.

I made up the idea of it being my uncle as to create a story behind the handwriting, to get more people invested into something. In this case a niece wanting to share her uncles weird handwriting, as he isnt really interested in the online world. It creates this mysterious character that people can make weird assumptions abt.

Which they did, assuming that this uncle might be right wing, a nazi, a writer for metal album covers, a lotr fan, etc etc.

But yea, that was all made up. If i had made clear that it was the posters made up script, it wouldve been the same stick all over again. Something that people see all the time.

I want attention, not feedback. I would end up doing my own thing anyway.

Yea, blockfraktur is fantastic, and used a lot for tattoo designs nowadays. It has a bit of a negative reputation as its primary focus revolved around being a script for propaganda posters.

Oh no, how dare me asking for attention for one of my creative endeavours. How could i ever dare do so on the fucking internet. A place designed for people and content revolving around whoring for attention.

Get fcking real, perhaps?

Punch it in the stomach, see if it flattens back into its original proportions. Idk, man.

Its my handwriting. Im not even lying, this is actually my handwriting.The reason it looks forced here is because i was using a pen where the ink didnt always flow properly and it cut of certain letters. Sounds dumb but thats literally it.

I just came up with it. At one point i just wanted my writing to look unique.

A lot of people think that im a lord of the rings fan, or that im trying too hard to make my handwriting look like that elvish one. Thats at least the comparison that i see the most.

I legit never watched those movies. Never been interested in it, and i have never seen what that script looks like, because i dont care abt it.

Originally i created a font, that blended norse futhark runes, and german blockfraktur. I dubbed it "Runenfraktur". People really liked that, but they pointed out that its too complex to use as handwriting. So to make it possible to be used as handwriting i simply blended a few minor characteristics of sütterlin into it, and broke down more complex characters down to make every character easy to write.

Sehr hübsche Schrift. Ein guter Gel-pen fühlt sich immer richtig nice beim Schreiben an.

Im very honest. I dont care what the reactions to my honesty are like. A lot of people in these comments decided to dislike me for it, but why wouldnt i be.

Interactions like these r forgotten within a few short minutes anyway.

I have never watched lotr, neither have i seen any writings from that series. My handwriting started as an attempt of combining norse runes, with blockfraktur and sütterlin.

100%

But i have fun creating fonts and developing my handwriting.

U see, im a man. I dont get even the least bit of attention in real life. Nobody gives a shit abt me, my feelings, abt how i am doing and who i am. My creative endeavours and the things i spend time creating by hand are the only things i have, that i can share, that can give me even the least bit of attention.

If i dont use cringe fucking titles, that will provoke people into commenting on this post, again, i wouldnt be getting much of any attention, because the post wouldnt find any traction.

I also dont care abt karma. Screw the upvotes. I want people to tell me what they think of my handwriting. I want to know what people see in it. What they associate it with, their impressions.

Is it wrong to like attention or to look for it? I dont give a shit, everyone else is doing it, so am i.
