Hello, /adv/. Ever since I was young, I held my pencil incorrectly. No teachers ever corrected me - thanks public education - and now I'm nearly thirty years old. My penmanship is awful and everything I write looks like a five year old wrote it.
I need to learn how to write better. How do I do this? I mean, I've read guides online and they all show how to hold a pencil correctly, but I'm fighting 20+ years of muscle memory. Trying to hold a pencil correctly feels wrong, and no matter how many times I practice, I keep reverting to what I'm used to.
Holding the pencil correctly doesn't magically make me write better, either. So I'm not seeing any improvement. I know repetition is key and I just need to keep at it, but at this point, is completely changing my writing style possible?
