What's that writing called LOL

[Astrolady]

I used to do it all the time as a kid. You would make squares then draw lines in the square to make a letter, so a H would be a box with two vertical lines in the middle drawn from the top and bottom of the box but not meeting in the middle.

Does that make sense.

I was doing it for the kids and cant' remember how to do a G or a Q and wanted to google it.

You've totally lost me LOL. I have no idea what you are talking about

Sounds like some kind of bubble writing variant...probably from the eighties when everyone was thrilled by the thought of being able to write like a computer! Lol

[AnyDream]

Btw you could do g with a half line from the middle of the rhs to the centre of the square. And a diagonal line from the bottom rh corner to the middle for the q.

Eta just asked dd who says a g is done with a short line in the middle like an o, but with a halfway line going in from the lhs so you get like a lower case g. Box writing? Square writing? Cube writing?

Well I was a child of the 80's lmao.

Do you know what I just remembered I first saw it on that science show with Rob and .... The Curiosity Show. I think it was called.

Very. Very. 1980s.

ETA, did you give DD's suggestions a try?

I know exactly what you mean Kat
It used to be in the Lettering Book as well, I wonder if you googled that, you might find it?
