Slightly scribbl-y but otherwise good readability. <3

You're the second (US) person I've seen writing the z like that. I like it! :D

Definitely scribbly:) Glad you can read it though. No one in my house can. Sometimes I can't either. LOL.

Wait. People in Europe don't cross their z's? It's to eliminate confusion between 2's. That's why I cross my 7's too (to eliminate confusion between 1's.)

It's not common for people to cross z's though. I picked it up somewhere along the way.

I do cross my z, too. But I write mine without the cute little squiggle like the letter g has (if you know what I mean? :P). It's not completely uncommon here, though. I think my grandma used to write her z like that. *ponders*

I also cross my 7. And my Z.

Oh, are you talking about the little bit on the bottom of the Z? I think that's rather my own invention. Or a cross between print and cursive. I assume you are talking about the capital Z.

Nope, I'm talking about the little z, not the big Z. Your little z looks a bit like the little g with the squiggle at the bottom. I've seen someone else (who's also from the US) write their little z like that, that's why I noticed it.

http://www.writingwizard.longcountdown.com/files/worksheet20064214147570.html is how I learned to write a lowercase cursive z. I don't know how else you would write it.

Clearly I need to pay more attention:D

And THIS is how I learned to write it. xD
I do cross my lowercase z, though.
