I could make a sample but I don't feel like hooking up the scanner and I don't have a digicam handy.

I used to write left handed. I became very annoyed, usually ending up with pencil smeared onto my hand from writing. So, I taught myself to write with my right hand, and that's the way I've written ever since.



How the hell did you manage that?

I fractured my wrist twice when I was in school, and it would take me an hour to write a single sentence with my right hand. Also, it would look just as bad as when written with my left hand.

I dunno, I would just mess around with writing with my right hand. Then I noticed I started getting good doing it. Once I got neater, and noticed the benefits, I became determined to write righty. Took me a couple years to get it down, but after that it's cake.

i'm right handed and i'm lucky if i can read it (and i'm a girl!).
i only use pen when i'm at work (stupid legal documents).
...for all other things i use a pencil in case my writing gets really bad.
