[Weekly] 03/18/15 - 03/25/15 Handwriting Practice

Recommended Posts

Hello, everyone!

 

I would love to start a weekly handwriting practice on here. Every week, I'll post one or two poems, excerpts, or other interesting things (hopefully) for you guys to copy in your favorite handwriting, or a handwriting you're trying to improve!

 

The only rule that I have is that if you'd like to be critiqued, please indicate it in your post, otherwise, only positive comments will be allowed.

Please refrain from offering constructive criticism if the poster does not indicate that it is wanted!

This rule is in place in order to provide a safe place for people to post their writing samples, without any fear or anxiety!

 

Other than that, you may choose to copy one, or both of the samples if you so desire. Whatever style you prefer is allowed here, whether it is print or cursive, or some symbolic language you made up for private journaling :P !

 

Please, participate and have fun!

 

P.S. This is not an original idea. I found it on a handwriting forum and thought it would be fun to start one here on FPN. :)

 

This week's sample:

Freehand, green line was done first, with the most care, with my fave pen. I've been cleaning my house so bit wobblier than usual due to tired hand muscles. Interesting - I've allowed a curvature to creep into my writing so need to straighten up the entries and exits of each letter. The paper is blue.

I LOVE your capital Bs. I also like how thin your "f"s and "l"s are. Your capital Q is stunning.

I struggle with all of the above. T_T

 

Thank you for posting! :)

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
