I use a multi-purpose splint. I don't write much but if I have to, I use my
splint which I also use for typing, eating and brushing my teeth. I sell these
btw, if anyone needs one, haha.

I've always used a splint called the Wanchik Writer. It holds a pen in your
hand in more of a natural position. It just slips on the side of your hand and
you put your finger in a loop at the end. If you need more wrist support they
have one called version 2. And the best thing about it is I tape a spoon or
fork on it and I use it to eat with. I was never able to feed myself with the
regular Velcro universal cuff or spoons or forks that have the loops that slip
on your hand. I cannot lift my arm up that high with my elbow out. With this
split I can keep my elbow down.
You can see what they look like here.
