Very proud of you!!! It is a truly a tragedy, that it’s becoming history to write in cursive, calligraphy! I’m very disappointed Boston, MASS doesn’t have cursive as part of the curriculum in public schools 😡😡

Bravo I am with you. I wonder if it would make sense to offer an endowment for excellence in handwriting to youth in my town.

I am still using cursive with fountain pen every day. But sadly no many people using cursive and hand writing now. ;-(
