Cursive

[lynxypoo.livejournal.com]

So, I've been spending the past couple weeks in class trying to drill myself on russian cursive. I still have a few letters i'm unsure of, and I'd like you all to take a look at what I have. I know my handwriting isn't grand, and its kindof smudgy because I refuse to use pen, but I have a scan from the exercises I transcribed today. (They were already done in print, I just made them cursive. I wont be surprised if there are a few grammar errors..)

My main concerns are и and ф. does и ALWAYS have a hook behind it? I found that when writing иш, the letters blended together, so I started adding the hook after и, but it looks odd between other letters. Also, I don't understand how to really do ф or how to connect it with the other letters. I've been doing an o, then another circle, squigly, then starting the next letter just off the bottom of the second o. Its a bit awkward.

Is jerom’s scan at http://photos.streamphoto.ru/3/8/9/85dbf14be21e18cd24a001fa62354983.jpg incorrect then? I don’t see any hooks after иs (except the ones belonging to a following л or м).

look at "или" in the last line.
