As if my handwriting weren't hard to read already

Lately, I've been trying to teach myself Handywrite in the hopes of having a faster way of getting information from my head onto paper. (Hard as it may be to believe, I don't always have a keyboard at hand.) Once I get the basic system down, I can start using the related shorthand system to get even faster, if I want. At the moment, writing anything in this system is slower than writing it out in cursive or print, but it is hard to judge since I tend not to write complete sentences by hand anyway.
