Writing and penmanship

The former deals with the skill of written communication while the latter is about scripting manually in a certain manner, better or worse. Today the latter does not give me much heartache, but once my penmanship was akin to the marks made by a spider that accidentally jumped into a bottle of ink and ran across a page.
The computer has almost killed penmanship but has given a great fillip to writing! You can correct spelling errors, rearrange trains of thought, check grammar and even check for plagiarism.
Alas, you have to learn to type and He of the Fat Fingers, struggles...
