I enjoy hand brushed lettering, but I’ve never done calligraphy. Seems to be quite different than just having nice legible handwriting, its a much more structural process, more like drafting than writing
Somewhere in that region, yes. I find it much more of a process of drawing than writing, each individual letter gets specific attention. Maybe if you’ve done it enough you start picking up speed and start thinking about whole words.
I wrote almost exclusively in cursive and it looks just as bad as my non-curskve writing (REALLY bad). Cursive is just so much faster and smother. Don’t gotta lift the pen for each letter.
I have lovely cursive handwriting and I’m proud of it
My handwriting is anal sauce but at least at one point I wasn’t terrible at calligraphy. Those two things are not related skills at all.

It’s beautiful when it’s well done. Almost some sort of graphic art.

It took a while to relearn cursive as an adult but it def feels nice and flowy, and switching back to printing feels slower for sure
Plus it saves a lot of time when you’re writing things out by hand, like birthday card wishes, or a diary.
And it wastes a lot of time when the recipient can’t read a god damned thing written down.
That’s their problem at that point lol
