Yes. Has the date and states an affidavit or prepare a "Holographic Will" which is completely written and signed in the handwriting of the testator stating intended distribution of estate.

Yes, they are many attorneys and "How TO" legal books that carry the forms and are acceptable by the Courts as valid wills so long as they are properly notarized and signed by the parties. An Affidavit or a "Hand Drafted Will" is also acceptable by the Court.

It depends on what type of form you are referring to. Wills are very important legal documents and I suggest you contact a lawyer who specializes in them. They can easily be found on google. Best of luck!

Using an affidavit as a will is legal in some states, but talk to an attorney for the laws of your state. Even an affidavit will require witnesses.

The laws for wills vary from state to state. However, in general, form affidavits are acceptable for wills if they are properly signed and notarized and would otherwise be valid (in other words, the affidavit has to follow the state's rules for wills in general).

Yes it is so long as communicates what it is (in as much detail as possible) that you want. for example make sure you make some one the executor of your estate and ensure that your various wishes about property and finial wishes are carried out.
