The only book designed for adults who have problems with their handwriting, this practical and informative title will help you correct problems and develop a mature and individual style.
Does your handwriting reflect the image you want to project?


The way you write mirrors your mood and character. It is one of the main ways in which you communicate with the world, and the clarity and technique of your writing will be interpreted by others in many ways.

This practical and informative book will help you to improve your handwriting and find a mature, attractive and individual style. It is specifically written for adults and uses self-diagnosis to identify problems and provides exercises for improving your script. In a digital age where writing by hand remains a vital skill, this book covers everything from holding a pen and retraining bad habits, to the difficulties that left handers face and problems that may be caused by medical conditions. It shows how to write quickly and clearly when desired, and beautifully when desired.

Experiment with the way you write and choose the style that suits you best, enabling you to write quickly and legibly when it really matters.
