Then I probably would not be a good candidate, my handwriting is terrible. Sad thing is...my typing is even worse. Maybe I should learn sign language?

Mines rubbish too.
When I was in school we had to copy into our books what the teacher wrote on the blackboard.

That was the lesson. All day, every day, copy notes.
The private education system of the seventies.

My hand would cramp up and I'd never finish before he wiped it and started again.
Always the last, and always ignorred when he asked if anyone hadn't finished!

So I had incomplete notes, and being a perfectionist, the frustration and anger and self-pitying failure sucked all the interest in school right out of me.

I still fantasise about nuking those mother-####ers.


Back to work, see you all later!

East asian calligraphy may be better represented like this

^^MissC, do you practice multiple different forms, or do you stick to one or two, specifically?

^Yeah, I thought I'd stick an english language of Chinese style.

I got a book on ancient Chinese calligraphy. Very hard to do.

When you practice, do you copy, or do you come up with your own stuff? Is there material specifically for practicing calligraphy?

Caligraphy is awesome!

I wish I had the ability. My mom and her brother are excellent artists, but me and my sister didn't inherit any of it. Maybe it skips generations?

Calligraphy is awesome!!

I label some of my things with an A from Old English Text, the first letter of my first name.

Chinese Caligraphy..

I was going to suggest braille or morse code for you bad handwriters, but now it's late and I'm too tired to give lessons. Good night.

Cool. Seems like there would be alot of little things to remember.

So whats going on?
