Not too bad all things considered. I learned a few things about the process and myself. First, I had to really SLOW down. in order to control the pen with muscles that are not used to doing this kind of work I had to go slow and steady. I think I could increase my speed with a lot of practice.
Second, I found that if I drew a line in the opposite way than how I would do it right handed it worked better. I usually draw my lines from the top of the page downward and from left to right. The lines that came out best were when I was pulling the pen from bottom to top and right to left.
Third, I had to let go of my notions of perfect and just enjoy the Zen of drawing. By the end I was actually beginning to loosen up and enjoy the flow. Perhaps I will try more ZIA with my left hand using patterns that just flow from that side.

It was hard indeed, but as you said, it makes you learn a lot.
You did quite well.
I agree, I think we all learned a lot about ourselves from this challenge. Nicely done!
This was not very easy, but you did very well.
I like your first tile. Like the contrast between the finer line and the bold fill. May want to check you link though. The one on the Diva's site (#27) goes to an error page.
WOW you have an absolutely firm non-dom hand!!!
