Handwriting
Describe your handwriting. Do you like it?
Do you print, write in cursive script, finger-tap, or mainly type?
Is your handwriting legible?
What is mainly taught where you live--block print, cursive script, or keyboarding?
When you type, do you "hunt and peck" or are you able to touch-type?
If you'd like, you may attach a sample of your handwriting here!

Handwriting
Describe your handwriting. Do you like it? It's a mixture of various styles, printing and cursive, and back-slants unless I turn the paper nearly 90 degrees to the table. It hasn't changed in years, though it's very different from when I was in school. It's fairly neat when I'm writing frequently, and yes, I like it.
Do you print, write in cursive script, finger-tap, or mainly type? Lately I mainly type, especially for stories. Lists are still hand-written.
Is your handwriting legible? Yes. Well, most of the time.
What is mainly taught where you live--block print, cursive script, or keyboarding? Printing up until about age 8, then keyboarding. Depending on the school, cursive may be taught up to about age 11, but it seems to be considered unimportant and old-fashioned in recent years.
When you type, do you "hunt and peck" or are you able to touch-type? I am an excellent typist and don't need to look at the keyboard. However, I tend to rush and get weirdly dyslexic. As in, all of the letters are there, jsut out of roder.
(Kerry, you have nice handwriting!)

Being left-handed, handwriting can sometimes be a real nightmare for me, as the ink/lead makes mess both on paper and on my skin, so, I need to choose my pen and pencil very carefully. When I need to be clear, I use block only, but e.g. for my signature and for my diary I use cursive script (just to make sure it would be hard for anyone else to read my diary!).
So far, only Mum complains about my handwriting, she insists they cannot read my block writing from envelopes, but none of my mail has been returned to sender because of unclear address details. These days, cursive is no more taught at school, but in my school days it was compulsory to learn both block and cursive. Another complaint from Mum insists I can't write straight, but for me it isn't a problem as long as others can read the text.
As for typing, I don't use any particular system, but I'm quite fast typer, even with dim lighting. I do a lot of typing errors though, so it isn't always very precise. It's just that I don't always hit the keys properly, nothing to do with dyslexia or anything like that.

Like a drunken spider that's fallen in a ink well.
Do you print, write in cursive script, finger-tap, or mainly type?
I've used a wordproccesor since 1986. I learnt to touch type at 14.
Is your handwriting legible?
Only if yout a cryptographer.
What is mainly taught where you live--block print, cursive script, or keyboarding?
No idea. From what I see kids seem welded to their phones.
When you type, do you "hunt and peck" or are you able to touch-type?
Touch-type

Describe your handwriting. Do you like it?
A mix of block and cursive, and it can be hard to read when I run my words together....
Do you print, write in cursive script, finger-tap, or mainly type?
See answer above
Is your handwriting legible?
Depends who's reading it
What is mainly taught where you live--block print, cursive script, or keyboarding?
At one time, cursive was taught, until mandatory tying class in high school, at this stage, no clue, probably keyboarding these days...
When you type, do you "hunt and peck" or are you able to touch-type?
I ascribe to the hunt-peck method of typing...
The joys of copy/paste so I didn't have to type out the questions again....
