Well, here's a second shot at this. I tried to fix the problems pointed out by those who helped me out.

The text is the first paragraph of Dostoevsky's Notes from the Underground - Записки из подполья.

Again, you shouldn't put a line above M, only T.

Also, I should apologize for not being more specific about м, я and л. You need the
little tail in front of these letters but not at the end. So, for example, in
человек, there should be a tail between е and л but not between л and о.

Otherwise, everything looks fine.

Tail before, not after. I'll remember that.


The one thing I'm perplexed about though is that м is the confusing character to me, not т. I honestly don't see the point in puting a line above т. The handwritten character for т looks like the latin small m and I find it's pretty easy to distinguish it. On the other hand, м can easily get lost if it's stacked in a bunch of ш, л and и. For me, putting the line above м looked like the logical solution. I guess I misunderstood what you said.

no, you never put a line above m. the little tail in front of m is enough for
distinguishing it from its neighbours.

I can recommend these free
IAMPETH Guide Sheets. The 55 degree slanted
one is a good starting point for cursive writing.

I'm not a calligrapher, but found these sheets will improve your handwriting quite a bit, effortlessly, and help you
get the proportions of the characters in your new script right. The slanted lines and the center line give you
additional reference points to help keep your new script's handwriting on track.

Might as well kill two birds with one stone. If you wish...


Have they been blocked now? I can't find them from your link.
Is there another source?

Regards
Ken
