Don't know. Joan of Arc was illiterate, therefore she didn't write. I guess we could speculate about which hand she used to wield her sword on the battlefield or carry her standard.

Reference: Someone who has a Doctor's degree in French and wrote her thesis on Joan of Arc.

Saint Joan learned to write her own name and a signature believed to be her own can be found on several surviving documents. These signatures have been analysed by handwriting experts who have concluded that they were written by somebody who was left-handed.
