I would say the easiest way to improve would be to take your time. By the looks of your writing it look like you rushed into it. Something you should really focus on is making sure your letters are on the line and making sure that they are more defined.
Also, make your letters more straight. Hopefully I helped. My hand writing used to look like a right handed cow writing with its left hand.
With these techniques my handwriting has improved drastically. Now i'm learning to write with my left hand! Practice makes perfect!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
