I hope you are ambitious.
I don't think I really knew what I was getting into when I ordered this Theory Book plus workbooks. They are not kidding around. So this is from the 1800's in a time, lost to us. This teaches you to write each letter by a series of strokes, so like a "W" would be like a 1,2,1,2 or something, I actually think it is more strokes than that, but as for this example is concerned, you would write your 1 stroke, then your 2 stroke then 1 and again your 2 stroke. So, the first workbook the first of it, is just drawing these individual strokes. A lot of them. A LOT. Then once you get the hang of that (wink wink), you are asked to put strokes together which makes a letter. It took me a while to figure out what was going on, and then to my horror I realized what the book was asking of me. I took up fountain pens recently, Vintage fountain pens with Flexy nibs, and that has brought me down this path. I will do this. I will. I find myself, doing all sorts of other things, instead of this, but I will do this. I am just building up my resolve, that is all. I am excited, about the prospect of practicing this, one day, when I am ready, sometime in the future.. I am sure, it will be very rewarding and I am looking forward to the day, that I have enough in me to put that first stroke in that workbook and commit to starting my lessons.
