I have PSE3 so it may be a little different.
just pick a small round brush like a 9 or so from the brush tool drop down menu
then where it says ' more options' on the brush tool bar, make sure the spacing is set all the way to the left.
I always draw on a seperate layer since I goof up a lot
also zoom in where you want to doodle or journal
bottom left is one in my handwriting.. I think i like fonts way better though I have horrible handwriting
