How to write my favorite word the way I do it.

Do you have a favorite word to write? I do. I have written a library’s worth of words in my lifetime. But for fun and flair, there is one word that beats them all by a cursive mile.

Here’s how to write it the way I do.

1. Grab your favorite pen.
2. Prepare to write in your flowiest cursive.
3. Draw a looping lowercase ‘a’ like you are circling the key point on the page.
4. Let each of the next letters flow like you are sketching a roller coaster.
5. After you finish the ‘e’, cross all three of the ‘t’s with one stroke. Do it as if you were crossing the most important task off your to-do list.
6. Dot the ‘i’ like you are an orchestra conductor hitting the final note in the final song of the final concert of your career.
7. Look at the word you have just written and realize that it means everything in life.
8. Write the word again and again and again, until the ink in your pen runs dry.
