In common mandarin chinese, How i wanted to know how many "known" 行书 semi-cursive handwriting variants are they?

I also wanted to ask two questions (the answer could be different although these two questions "seems" to appear the same) :

1) Which of those "known" 行书 semi-cursive handwriting variants are most popular in use nowadays by common Chinese people?

2) Which of those "known" 行书 semi-cursive handwriting variants has the most comprehensive & complete guide (in terms of number of characters which they construct on how to write the charaters in that variant) ?

Regards

  • There is no hard and fast rule about it. One usually copies from those he likes most, or develops his own way with reference to others.

  • This is like asking "how many cursive styles of handwriting exist in English (alphabet languages)"
