I want to improve mine. Can someone break it down for me? What study systems are there and what books are popular. I want to realistically learn a neat looking but efficient writing style, and maybe if I have time practice the Spencerian fancy font.

A few tips I've heard in the past:

Don't press too hard.
Be conscious of the letters/words you are writing.
Move your whole arm across the page as you write (not just the wrist), you'll be more fluid that way. Invest in a fountain pen; it'll help you stay focussed on what you are writing.
