eta: I forgot to say so specifically, but I hope the people who have ticked "something else interesting" will say what it was :-)

Mine's about half joined-up and half cursive. I think several of the letters, such as d, are influenced by my having done Greek and being lazy enough that I wanted the same squiggle to pass in both alphabets. (Actually, [fx: writes out Greek alphabet] I think it's just d.) I don't think I've seen anyone else write r the way I do, and it's conspicuously absent from graphology books, which is odd because it looks just like an r but is more convenient to write in cursive (it grows out of the bottom left, has an angle at the top left and a horizontal flourish).

I think most people start their cursive 'r's at the top left rather than bottom.

Yes. But it seems odd that they *all* do.
