Inspired, of course, by the lovely Camilla.

Handwriting remains an extremely personal art; when you receive a handwritten letter from someone you met on the Internets, you can't help feeling that you've suddenly glimpsed some intimate part of them. In some cases it confirms your impressions of the online personality, but in others, it's a strange new angle that you must learn to reconcile.

But it's a personal detail that doesn't run the risk of exposing or endangering anyone (I think!), so even our more private members should be able to participate, if they wish.

I'll go first (it's in my profile), and I am posting with the awareness that I might also be the only, as often happens with these community things. :P It truly doesn't take long, though - scrawl a few words on a piece of scrap paper, scan, and put in your profile/on flickr. I don't have a scanner, so I used my digital camera and switched it to the setting with the little tulip (micro).

I will admit I had to PS mine a little to make it legible (not good at that steady camera hand thing), so if anyone else needs that too, he/she can send it to me, and I'll do the (thirty seconds worth :P) of work.

I hope a few people will have fun with this. :)
