Backtrack-Free Cursive: A New Script for Joyful English Writing

Backtrack-Free Cursive

I discovered that English cursive writing is frustrating because of constant backtracking to dot i's and cross t's, unlike Russian. To fix this, I designed a new single-stroke script based on SmithHand and Cyrillic principles. This approach eliminates the mental queue of pending strokes, making digital and paper writing as fluid and delightful as my native language.

"I love writing in cursive, shaping each word in one long stroke. If you grew up learning the Latin alphabet, you likely don’t realize how much joy it sucks out of cursive writing."
