Working on my handwriting again. Obviously somebody else beat me to the use of this page, as well as a few others.

I actually love sitting down to write with my daughter even when she gets ahold of my journal and does this. I haven't gotten mad once. I just grab a pen and write on the same page. It helps to date it as well.

I'll look back on this over the years and remember fondly that she loved getting ahold of a pen and doing her own writing with daddy.

I was a photographer many years ago so no direct effect there. I've been an artist of sorts my whole life and although the pen hobby came about after she was born the artistic aspect was established already.

The passion for handwriting came about as a reaction to the school system and the ideological agendas therein. I want to teach my daughter to think for herself and I think that starts with being able to read and write.

AMEN TO READING AND WRITING!!!

I’ve been using my dc-1 by daylight computer co lately it’s a good hand writing device but I’ll never abandon the smell of ink. Nothing else is like that. The more you write the more you can smell it

I love that you have one of those. I've been looking into them and they're the only devices that I want my daughter to have access to.

The Remarkable device is good too, if you just want e-ink for writing. No backlight but it’s fit for purpose and you might be able to get one this year for Christmas. Dc-1 are on back order at the moment.

People share stuff like this and makes me want to be a father even more.
