Tomorrow is the day we celebrate all things cursive... and hand printed. Yes, my friends, January 23 is National Handwriting Day!

National Handwriting Day, a day created to honor all things related to penmanship, was designated in 1977 and is sponsored by the Writing Instrument Manufacturers Association. January 23 was chosen for the annual occasion as it's the birthday of John Hancock, whom we all know had quite the flair with signatures and such.

In recognition of National Handwriting Day, here are a few of my past posts that might inspire you to put pen to paper today... or tomorrow... or whenever a hankering for handwriting can't be denied:
