Handwriting for Adults

Business Team Training Listening Meeting Concept

“If I could organize my day,
just in terms of pure enjoyment,
I would be with other people at a whiteboard.”
Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon, from televised interview

Handwriting for Adults

Does your handwriting work for you?

Handwriting helps you learn, share ideas, and be creative. Handwriting today is still a professional skill. It’s your visible speech. At its best, it’s a source of pride.

Your handwriting needs to keep up with the demands of modern life. It should be legible on the whiteboard and distinctive on a handwritten personal note.

What is italic?

These days, we think about “italic” as a way to make writing slanted on a word processor. But italic handwriting is a style of writing that was developed five centuries ago in the Italian Renaissance.

Most handwriting styles have a print and a cursive form — and so does italic.

Italic handwriting is:

Legible – it has an uncluttered flow, even when written rapidly
Logical – it has an easy transition from printing to cursive writing
Easy to write – its shapes and strokes are a natural fit for hand movements
Easy to learn – it is simple to get the basics across with a step-by-step approach.

"Handsomely handwritten, wondrously clear, easy to use, and even witty, Write Now is the perfect resource for anyone who wants to improve a deteriorated script."
Kitty Burns Florey, author
