The solution to my 10 year old's handwriting woes was borrowed from the old school...a real quill pen, dipped in an ink well.
He asked (o.k., begged) for a quill pen and has used it diligently (and willingly!!!) each day to practice his handwriting. The result has been a noticeable improvement in his penmanship and an increased willingness to pick up a pen and write. Woohoo!
When a person wants to do something, he does a much better job of it. :-)
