Penmanship pointers from the Gregg Writer and other various sites and ideas. ETA: There was a link to the old Multiply board that now moved to Blogger.

This is great for those just starting to write. Has wonderful pointers. I read it and learned a lot. Oh I also wrote a lot of it too.

Noice how they did the "u" and "oi" sound contineous to get use to the way the outline is written.

You can also do contineous movements with other outlines.

Can I learn Shorthand gives you an idea of continuous outline writing. If you want to practice some penmanship drills for Gregg Shorthand, do some of the first few lessons over and over. These are the basics of what you will do for the rest of your life using Gregg Shorthand. Mastering the basics of Gregg shorthand, both theory and writing, you will find the rest easier.

There must have been a similar teaching theory going around at the time Gregg introduced the penmanship writing. "The Champion Method of Practical Business Writing" in 1921 had similar ideas a Gregg Shorthand. Here is an example of a page and you would do this with Gregg also, maybe with the same type of outline (I saw several pages in the Gregg Writer from about the same time with this type of drill):

I liked this suggestion from the above book, works for Shorthand or any other goal you want to achieve.

Gregg Writer, 1903. Similar to what the link above suggested.

It looks like this one is practicing the "j" "ch" and "sh" plus the letters "b" and "p"' "f" "v".

Practice several letters and words in the same fashion as above.
Write it out partially. Practice on section at a time. Write out the outline continuosly, as shown above, to practice getting a flow of the character. Practice it several times. The example plates above only show it once, but write it out several times to get it set in your mind. Check and double check the manual or dictionary for the correct outline as you practice it Try several different words using the same theory.
