Now I'm guessing you are about 8 years old. And I got a BADGE - no, not a badger – at my blog. Go for a closer look at my latest post.

Are you going to create a font out of it? Will I get a commission? Ariel - Strangely enough, "very neat handwriting even though the thoughts might be muddled" just about sums me up. I think my teachers said that as far back as primary school. Angelalala - All of that is right apart from making a big entrance. I'm shy and retiring, you know.

The little graphology I've read and retained says your overly reinforced initial caps mean you like to make a Big Entrance and be noticed. The standardised letter sizing throughout the lower case means you're quite guarded. I think the fact that some of your letters sit above the line means you feel yourself superior but I'd not bet my beer money on my recall of that. That’s much neater than my pitiful scrawl.

Does every letter really have to join to another one? Who makes these rules? Does it make writing any neater, or dare I say it more enjoyable? Or does it in fact dampen individualism - what the National Curriculum in fact does best. Your words, and handwriting, are lovely. Ten out of ten and two house points.
