Universal Publishing’s handwriting programs are written by internationally recognized handwriting instruction expert and master penman Thomas M. Wasylyk. With nearly 40 years of experience in the field of handwriting instruction, Mr. Wasylyk has dedicated his career to helping students learn to write by hand.  His mission is to provide educators and students with handwriting programs that are both effective and affordable.

Prior to starting his own publishing company, Mr. Wasylyk served as Zaner-Bloser’s author, editor, and penman. This background, as well as his work with educators through his professional development workshops and his ongoing participation with IAMPETH (International Association of Master Penmen, Engrossers, and Teachers of Handwriting), make Mr. Wasylyk uniquely qualified to develop handwriting instruction materials.  He continually works to ensure that the methodology of his handwriting programs reflects not only the latest research, but also the needs of educators and their students.
