Handwriting Practice Pages
After shaking hands for hours, Abraham Lincoln went to sign The Emancipation Proclamation, and realized that his own hand was numb and shaking,since he had spent the morning shaking the hands of over 1,000 people. So he put the pen down and waited until he could sign with a bold and clear hand. (This story is related by Doris Kearns Goodwin in her TED talk). He recognized what his signature would say in years to come about Abraham Lincoln. The marks we make have value, beauty and weight.
We believe in the importance of the handwritten page and how that reflects and records our lives. For your convenience, we are providing three practice pages with lines in 1/2″, 3/4″, and 1″ widths free of charge. You will also find some interesting links to inspire you to consider the art of writing.
