Without knowing the person in question I can only speculate.
1. The person has not had good instruction in handwriting.
2. The person has dysgraphia--a disability which causes very poor and/or labored handwriting. sometimes the person with dysgraphia complains of pain when he or she writes-either localized pain in the wrist and the hand or pain throughout the body.
3. The person has not had sufficient practice in writing well.
4. the person has another disability which causes problems with fine motor skills.
5. The person is too young to have developed the strength and fine motor skills necessary to develop good grip and good handwriting practices.

I'm a preschool teacher, and I can tell you from experience that all those things children do that seem like "just playing" are designed to help them tackle harder tasks like writing in an easier manner. Without knowing you what I would suggest is to exercise your hand and fingers to gain the fine motor skills needed to write; once you have these it will become less difficult and tiredsome to write. Some ways in which you can exercise these necessary skills is by using clay or play-doh to model small figures, try doing balls in different sizes, roll it up to make "snakes", etc. shred tissue paper using your fingers, you can also form little balls with it; if you shred longer strips you can twist it while you pull it in order to make "threads" of paper.
After some time you can move on to exercise on your actual handwriting, start practicing shapes like circles, and lines in different positions; until you feel ready to move on to individual letters and later words.
These are some websites where you can download and print practice worksheets:

Many people in general have bad hand writing. Doctors for instance have bad hand writting because they write fast, and don't pay attention to it or careless. People say, handwriting reflects on if your organized or responsible, but Doctor though could be looked as organized and responsible. People with big hand writing seem to have a lot of confidence and want attention.
I say, if you want to get better writing, practice slowly and get the hang of it, after a while it will improve.
