Exploring with the pen, as you have done here, will aid in your understanding of the forms. If you wish, there is a group in your area that you could hook up with:

http://www.westcoastcalligraphy.com/

They would be able to provide you with book recommendations, advice, workshops and help when you need it.

Best of luck. It is a fun journey.

Wow thats awsome. Thanks Typerror !
