That feathering and bleedthrough is genuinely atrocious. Get yourself some Norcom compositions books (they use Brazillian FP-friendly paper) if you're straight outta bargain-basement, or Staples sustainable earth (bagasse paper, thin but allows shading to come through) if you're slightly more well off. You're hardly doing Noodler's Golden Brown justice.
If you're UK/Australian, then ???
Your prose is mediocre.

How often do you write by hand, /lit/?
Whenever I write fiction I do so by hand first, so somewhat often
What do you write with?
A cheap Pilot fountain pen. I quite like it.
Do you know cursive? Is your handwriting dog shit?
I know cursive but don't use it. It's pretty shite.
>>7397277
>How often do you write by hand, /lit/?
Whenever I have to; that means I mostly do it at work, when I have to write what belongs to which company, what needs to be done to it, and other specifications on a tag.
>What do you write with?
A pen, in all cases. At work, I do it with whatever pen is handy (and I have to make do with shitty ones at times, since my co-workers can't put anything back where they got it), but at home, I simply use one until it's shot.
>Do you know cursive? Is your handwriting dog shit?
Yes, I know cursive, and my handwriting is only dogshit if I have to, say, write on an inconvenient surface (my hand, a pallet, etc.). I've written with cursive since I was little, but these days, I just write in print whenever I need to be sure something is read accurately; some people don't seem to read cursive well, so it's better to cut a possible inconvenience out and ensure they can read it easily.

That looks nice.
What sort of pen can I buy that has like a .3mm tip? These are are for writing in a lab notebook and the ink needs to be waterproof. I've tried a sakura pigma micron, and a pilot razor point so far but I'm afraid the nib will wear down. Also the pilot's not waterproof so if my chemistry gets out of hand, my notes might not make it.
>how often do you write by hand, /lit/?
Everyday. I like to take notes and I don't always have a computer next to me, and because I'm learning Japanese I also prefer to write the characters myself in order to retain them and each one's strokes order easier.
>what do you write with?
I wrote with a cheap ballpoint pen but I received a “luxury” fountain pen and it changed everything.
>do you know cursive?
I do.
>is your handwriting dog shit?
Probably, few can read it but me.
reminder that Uniball is the only way to go, and anybody who writes with anything else is pleb
I write by hand pretty much every day. Not picky about the implement, but it's almost always a pen.
Pic related is what I use instead of the Latin alphabet, unless another person will need to be able to read what I write down.

>I want my ink to bleed fucking everywhere
>>7397277
>How often do you write by hand, /lit/?
Daily. I love making lists each day so I get everything done.
>What do you write with?
Mechanical pencil and cheapy ballpoints. I loved pilots but they smudge or die on me too quickly.
>Do you know cursive? Is your handwriting dog shit?
Yes I know it and yes my handwriting is shit. I grade essays by hand too, my poor students have to decipher it.

>not dabbing the paper with tissue after each stroke
come on, bro
>>7397277
>How often do you write by hand, /lit/?
whenever I write, all first drafts I write on paper, or else I miss a lot and things sound full retard
>What do you write with?
pictured preppy fountain pen, or another with a wider nib in brown, [I have a vast collection of pens of pens that I am slowly working on using up] but that brown ink bleeds like crazy and now I think about it, it was a bad idea loading that wide nib preppy with it
>Do you know cursive? Is your handwriting dog shit?
eh, catholic school so cursive was a must and it varies

as little as I can nowadays. keyboard is so much faster, I feel on pen that my flow is being stifled if you know what I mean. thought goes so much faster than how quickly I can write it down. Bandwidth issue.
>What do you write with?
Keyboard
>Do you know cursive? Is your handwriting dog shit?
My handwriting is pretty good actually. I like writing "aesthetically" by hand

>I feel on pen that my flow is being stifled if you know what I mean.
no I don't know what you mean. actually, when somebody says something like that they just mean they can now exercise written diarrhea that isn't worth a damn because they couldn't filter things as fast as they could come up with those things

m8 it doesn't work like that
most of the time when writing I come up with "packets" of 4 or 5 sentences. I stop writing while I arrange the words and the flow in my head. Once I'm done I write the whole packet down. If I'm writing by hand my mind already moves on the next packet, except I can't focus since I'm distracted by the physical act of writing
Usually at work when notes are left in the communication book, it's 'oh who wrote this?' but
when they see my writing: "anon wrote this, you can tell because it's godawful handwriting"
My friend had pretty shitty handwriting but when it came to cursive it was literally the most beautiful thing I ever seen. Everything was so perfect, almost as if she studied/practiced calligraphy. I was extremely impressed by it.

Platinum Preppy EF writes in an 0.2 Japanese extra fine line, which is the absolute finest you can get short of writing with a razor blade. It's about $5.
If you're in laboratory, buy a forgery-proof ink, like Noodler's Black/HoD/X-Feather or Pilot Carbon black.
>>7398257
is this hebrew cursive or some shit you made up?
>>7397277
>How often do you write by hand, /lit/?
A few words a month, maybe.
>What do you write with?
Attitude, and pen.
>Do you know cursive?
Learned some cursive letters in third grade before that stopped teaching it in schools here halfway through the year.
This resulted in a few teachers every year being bewildered and angry that no one wrote in cursive.
Is your handwriting dog shit?
I can read it so pffffffffffff
>>7397277
>How often do you write by hand, /lit/?
Almost never unless I'm filling forms or something like that.
>What do you write with?
Anything at hand.
>Do you know cursive? Is your handwriting dog shit?
All euros do. I don't know, you decide.
>>7397277
Every day, not literature though.
I'm ambidextrous in that I don't have a dominant hand so it looks like dog shit no matter what I do.
I wish during my formative years I'd have had a more engaged teacher to force me to do it properly.
>How often do you write by hand, /lit/?
Whenever I write something I do it by hand, then transfer it to my computer.
>What do you write with?
I have a brand of mechanical pencil I like, they are a bit expensive but I have been using the same three pencils for about one and a half years.
>Do you know cursive? Is your handwriting dog shit?
I know cursive. I have decent handwriting when I try, but that isn't very often.
