Every now and then I'll go on a tear and do something very much like a standard lead-in paragraph in a Scientific American article (from the good old days).
Most folks would read those paragraphs and say "Hmm, so that's what this is about" and read the rest of the article, or ignore it.
It's not easy to learn that one, but it's useful.
That and many other standard styles go into the way I structure information. Over the years I received many calls from lawyers and customers asking if I'd written any particular document or letter (regarding some case they'd handled) because, as they'd say, it sounds just like you.
Usually I had.
My words are my signature in any case.
Now,your turn. Tell us how we can tell you wrote something just by reading it?

I’m old. I was the last of those who revised papers in cursive. We wrote full hand papers for our classes, and edited them and rewrote them in cursive.
Writing as a skill in cursive is a completely different skill from typing on a keyboard. The structure is different, the words are different and the way in which a person writes changes to accommodate the machine.
I write in cursive if the letter is personal. I find that people appeciate the letter more and that the content of the letter is different.
As for not training kids, what’s the point of school? Reading, writing and arithematic. If they can’t write, then there’s no reason for them to be in school.
