Paragraphs of the Week - #5
The Paragraphs (Bit of a horror feel this week)
-
"Something came out of the fog and tried to destroy us. In one moment, it vanished. But if this has been anything but a nightmare, and if we don't wake up to find ourselves safe in our beds, it could come again. To the ships at sea who can hear my voice: look across the water, into the darkness. Look for the fog." - The Fog (1980)
-
“There was something in her, something that was...pure horror. Everything you were supposed to watch out for. Heights, fire, shards of glass, snakes, everything that his mom tried so hard to keep him safe from.” ― John Ajvide Lindqvist, Let the Right One In
-
"Well, I have to be able to run like a frickin’ gazelle without getting winded. Plus, there’s that whole thing about making it look like you’re walking while everybody else is running their asses off. And I gotta stay with ‘em! It’s tough, man!" - Leslie, Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon
-
"I was filling entire school notebooks with stories by Grade 3. Of course, they were double-spaced, and the handwriting was huge." - Linwood Barclay
-
"I just hate sitting and writing - I had to do that in school. Plus, I have terrible handwriting." - Saul Kripke

I normally write in a hybrid (not print yet not cursive) style, but it's pretty illegible. I haven't written in cursive in forever, and it's way harder than I remember! You have to plan the whole word before putting it to paper...

Honestly now that I think of it, I think that's where I'm going wrong with cursive. I just write and hope I remember how to form each letter as I go. I guess you learn it as you write more, but that's probably the reason why my cursive writing is messy, haha.
I am jealous of people who can write more than two styles (print and cursive).
The sloppy one kind of looks like mine :)
