Cursive Greek writing

Dear B-Greekers,

I have been writing the Greek text in addition to reciting it and
have come to the conclusion that printing large amounts of
Greek text letter by letter is not efficient.

I am beginning to understand why uncials went out of favor.

I would like to master a cursive style of Greek writing that is
pleasing to the eye and efficient to write both for copying
large blocks of Greek text and for taking notes.

I would like to do this without transliterating the characters into
roman if at all possible.

I am thinking about photo-copying some miniscule manuscripts to
use as a pattern unless someone knows of a textbook that teaches
cursive for Koine.

Does anyone have experience with this ?

Sincerely,
Larry Kruper
