Shorthand Systems compared to Chicken Scratchings

It’s been a long time since I visited. I’ve abandoned Gregg. I miss it, but just can’t keep the lines the right length and curve, and can’t read back my own writing, which is the whole point. So, Forkner. It’s fast enough, and I’m adding shortcuts from Gregg to speed it up.

Doesn’t mean I’ve stopped thinking about it, though:

Cricket’s Guide to Different Shorthands, comparison of Chicken Scratching:

Pitman: chickens in geometry class.
Forkner: chickens learning cursive
TeeLine: chickens ballroom dancing.
Gregg: chickens ice dancing.
