This one just occurred to me, but I have always had iffy handwriting and recently have been trying to learn Russian which is reliant on fairly tricky cursive.

I have found the whole experience of learning a new style of cursive to be frustratingly difficult and was wondering if not having a good visual memory might lend itself to a slightly harder time of it.

Oh, I'm sure. I have picked up other non-Latin scripts before (Hebrew was interesting), I was just wondering if it is something that other folk with aphantasia find difficult.
