When journaling and in notes to myself, I draw words in Gregg shorthand mixed with longhand.
I wonder how many folks pen in Gregg?
Below is the text of and a photo from part of a recent journal entry...from between the Moleskine cover.

'Tis a cloudy fall day. Sleepy day. Not sure what I have to write today, what I have to come off my fingertips....these letters and words to draw.
I like thinking of writing as drawing letters. I mean like art...I draw.
I like taking time to draw them legibly.
Sometimes when I write, I write too fast and even I can't read my own handwriting.
Maybe I'll take a photo of this page of my handwritten journal.
I could even give a little lesson in Gregg shorthand. Hmmm...that is an idea.
