The ancient Egyptians used three forms of writing: hieroglyphics for religious or political texts to be carved in stone or painted on walls in a permanent way, hieratic script, which was an abstracted form of the hieroglyphs which could be quickly written with pen and papyrus, and demotic script, which was used for everyday purposes, was also suited to pen and ink, and was even further removed from hieroglyphs, although based on them.
