This is interesting work, though not what the Americans call “cursive” (their term for joined-up or Schreibschrift).

The style used in these examples would be considered “printed” or block letters. . I like that it embraces two different forms of, for example, ‘t’ — my handwriting (both joined up and block forms) exhibits a number of contextually chosen alternative forms and ligatures that I somehow unwittingly developed over the years — in particular relaying to t, g, q, and z. I wonder if that is common — I rarely read anyone else’s handwriting any more.

I also alter ligatures and diacritics depending on the context— y, g, i, and t especially.

Does anyone write their S's from the bottom up?
