The big problem was in the instructions of paper placement. I clearly
remember teachers telling us to turn the paper so the top of the paper
is pointed toward the upper left corner of our desks. That's great if
you're right-handed. Being left-handed and kind of a perverse little
kid I turned mine so the top was pointed toward the upper right desk
corner. That kept me from having to tie my hand in a knot to write and
I didn't drag my hand through the fresh ink. Unfortunately nothing has
ever worked to improve my penmanship...

They were taught to write without curling the left hand around above the line.
I know several lefties who use fountain pens.

I tried writing upside-down for a while. It was
slow, but it
was almost worth it to watch the double takes from the
teachers!

Just learn to write right-to-left or switch to a
