How do I stop from clenching my hands when writing?
Try a gel or rollerball pen. If you write often for long periods of time, these are great investments. Some gel and liquid inks may also flow smoothly enough to help discourage you from clenching and pressing. Write with your arm, not your fingers.
Is it possible to write too slowly?
You might be writing too slowly, but you don’t want to change that. Which is fine. But if you want to change, you have to stop writing prematurely, which doesn’t mean not write at all. What it means is that you don’t start writing the actual piece, the article, chapter, whatever, without a lot of prewriting first.
What is the best way to write with your hands?
Write with your arm, not your fingers. Writing is not drawing! Keep your hand and wrist still, and move your whole arm using the elbow and shoulder (like you are writing on a whiteboard). Avoid using your finger muscles—this might seem counterintuitive, but your fingers should only be used to support your pen or pencil.
Is it possible to get pain in your hand from writing?
