I hate reading cursive, but somehow Kristy's isnt hard to read. I never liked Mary Anne's or Jessi's! Dawn's is probably the easiest to read, but as for favorite, I say Kristy's. But also -- you guys already mentioned that both Logan and Robert wrote in all caps. I just finished SS 3 Winter Vacation and noticed that Pierre (Stacey's LUV in that one) also wrote in all caps... what?! Did someone just assume that all males wrote like that? Yeah, that all-caps=male thing is so weird. I write in cursive and it worries me that soon, no one will be able to read my writing!

^I was flipping through my guide on my TV and saw that later this week, the Today Show (or some show like that, can't remember for sure) is going to talk about the downfall of cursive writing.

I checked and it said that Holly Tommasino was the person who created and executed all the handwritings for all of the characters.

Stacey's, Mary Anne's, Abby's & Shannon's handwriting have always been my favorites.

I don't understand not being able to read cursive. It's not like it's hieroglyphics or something. Most of the letters look pretty much like print letters with little curly-cues or squiggles attached.

i agree, good cursive isn't any harder to read than print. but then jessi and MA's handwriting gets so wonky and loopy that it barely looks like writing at all.

I don't know what "good cursive" would be besides Mary Anne's and Jessi's. Cursive is supposed to be loopy.

good cursive is just what it sounds like. there is a way to connect your letters and still make them legible.

I never found Jessi nor Mary Anne's to be illegible, though.

I guess Claudia has bad cursive. Well, maybe it''s not the actual cursive that's bad, it's just her handwriting is sloppy. I can't stand Jessi's writing. I guess it's legible, but I hate having to read it.

Claudia's handwriting confuses me. I wouldn't think someone that artistically gifted would have such tight cramped handwriting. The letters should flow out of her more naturally.
I never had issues reading Mary Anne or Jessi's writing either. They're the most technically correct, I think.

I think maybe there is a cramped/flow issue because it's so hard for Claudia to get her thoughts to translate to the written word.

I'd say Stacey's is my favorite. I never dotted my i's or j's with hearts (and I usually find it obnoxious) but Stacey's handwriting would look pretty ordinary without the hearts.
I'd say Mal's handwriting looks most like mine. Fairly small and reasonably neat.

I hate Jessi's and MA's. They both look pretty, but I find it tough to read.
I always liked Dawn's and Stacey's. Easy to read and neat. I also quite like Kristy's.
