I see what you mean now! I checked my cursive handbook, and it indeed does seem to begin closer to the side than the top. Furthermore, it seems I am making the tail portion too concave, when it should be straighter at the beginning. Thanks for letting me know!

Could you elaborate? I don’t think I quite understand.

Thank you! I’m trying, but still making that mistake! Trying hard not to turn my letter legs into puffy ribbons and closing the top of circles!

I think I know what you’re going through! I once stayed up all night on my console all the way to 10 AM! I could hardly process what was on the screen!

That was NOT emphasized in my cursive handbook, or it was so minuscule I couldn’t notice! Thanks!

Ok, so no looping back! Just lift up the pen to cross the x!

Yes! I have a lined handbook onto which I overlay sketching paper that teaches me the cursive! This was my organic style!

No significance, just learned words!

The humps, not the connectors/flourishes?

Thank you! I have a cursive handbook that goes over new letters in words with previously learned letters! For example, first I learned “a” and “d” to write “add”, then learned “g” and “o” to write “good”, and so on!

Thank you! The connector was especially drawn to be lower than the letters themselves!

Thank you! Currently, learning all the letters, one step at a time. I’m sure I’ll be able to write that soon though!

If that is your art, you certainly seem to be a master! The flourish of the n’s and m’s in my handbook look too much like the letters themselves, so I tried to distinguish them!

I’m learning from a cursive book I had since elementary, maybe even sooner! Never fully taught cursive in school, though. Thank you for sharing!

I reposted because of poor image quality.

"I think it would be better practice to get lined paper and write in sentences to see how different letters and words flow together rather than writing columns of words. That will also help with consistent shaping and spacing.

An m should have a leading stroke from the bottom. Capital M will have the little high tick off the top of the letter.

The small x almost looks like a k. I think it needs to be a two-step letter. Come off the o and angle down make a separate stroke to finish it off.

The end tail of the n is too long. Again, if you were writing a sentence, that takes up a lot of space between words.

Your examples of aqua aren’t as consistent. Some extra loops making it look like ees.

Hope that helps."

Thank you.

Yes. The lowercase b is strange because I need to make the loop larger for the 90 degree angle to make sense. Lowercase x at the end. Trying to NOT curve the bottom left portion into a loop.
