Disclosure: I make money off this site. Very little, but I want to be open about it. There are ads in the sidebar, and sometimes Amazon Affiliate links in the posts. I never do paid content or reviews. That's it. So are we cool? Awesome!
Beautiful and confident Sophie Lin, goody-goody aspiring writer Claudia Bradford, and boy-crazy scientist MJ Alexander are ready to tackle work, love, and life after college -- or so they think.
As their relationships go sour, their careers sputter, and a few too many ethical dilemmas arise, the girls turn to the one thing they can always count on: each other. But even that will be put to the test...

Welcome to New House 5. It’s not just the top floor of a brand new dorm. For 56 freshmen, it’s home. A place where friends are made and doors are always open. A place where hearts are broken and tears are shed.
Watch as these students try to overcome their flaws and fears to create a bond so special that nothing can pull them apart. Not even themselves.

There’s something to be said for handwriting instead of typing, isn’t there? I still do that with my writing journals – gives it a more personalized feel. :)
Your handwriting is so pretty. It looks like a computer font!
• Recent post from Shari: New Horizons.
I always handwrite first drafts, and I’m a fountain pen fanatic. I can’t handwrite blog posts, though, because my handwriting sucks. :-)

Is that your handwriting? It’s so, so pretty. I agree with Shari that it looks very much like a computer font.
• Recent post from Emy Shin: in which i take an indeterminate hiatus
Is that your real handwriting? It’s so … legible. I have dozens of journals that I hand wrote (back before I ever owned a computer) over the years, but now I type everything-even journal entries. I don’t miss the permanent callous I had on my middle finger from holding a pen so often. But there is something so wonderful and refreshing about reading a handwritten blog post! Thank you!
:)
Kristan, this post is so neato. You got a fountain-pen present? That’s a seriously chummy chum you’ve got there. A keeper. Your handwriting is pretty stellar. xx

Holy crap, is that your handwriting?
• Recent post from Sonje: It’s one of those blog posts about not having anything to blog about. Yes, CHRISTMAS HAS COME EARLY.
Lol yep, that’s my real handwriting. On good behavior. When I’m in a hurry, it’s not that nice. (And when I’m trying really hard, the r’s don’t look like v’s.)
Really lovely handwriting. I think hand writing in cursive is a lost art. No one seems to care how it looks anymore. I still do though.

BTW, may I borrow the idea?

Oh absolutely! I borrowed it from Honey Rock Dawn: http://honeyrockdawn.com/category/off-the-grid/
You have the nicest handwriting in the world! And what a great gift! I handwrite all my drafts first…it keeps me away from the dangerous Internet! :) Congrats again!

You know, I’ve been considering that more and more… I also self-edit a bit less when I write by hand, which would lend itself to the drafting process.
