RE: Pinsky poem in the Atlantic "Jar of Pens"

["Rock, Megan" <Megan -dot- Rock -at- fanucrobotics -dot- com>]

Right-handed and passable.  Certainly not beautiful and flowing.

I blame my poor penmanship on the fact that I learned circle-and-stick
printing (straight lines and circles to make lower case letters) in
kindergarten, then had to learn D'Nealian printing in first grade, skipped
second grade, and had to learn D'Nealian cursive in third grade.  I never
got good at any of them.  I was always the last one done with my penmanship
practice sheets, and I think I only got one A on a penmanship paper the
entire year in third grade.  It was a relief to get out of elementary school
and be freed to develop my own handwriting style, sloppy though it might be.
