Introductions / Another from the UK, Hello :)
« on: January 16, 2024, 05:01:02 AM »
Hello all.
My names Chris – Always loved writing, never had the time. I used to fix planes, now I’m a full time Dad and carer for my mum… which is not as bad as it sound! I have time for many things I did not before. Erica! Thanks for putting the time into this forum. It’s a fantastic resource and well kept!
I’m still on the beginning of the curve. I’m doing foundation round hand with broad nibs and dabbling a little with different nibs. I have no commercial aspiration. I just enjoy the art of writing and look forward to learning different styles. I am using Leonardt Broad nibs with some success, with the reservoir in the right place I was pleasantly surprised just how many letters I can manage before the pen needs a dip 😊
Hope I will have something to offer as I learn – There is a technical side to writing that is very much “engineering” – just need to find my artistic streak – if I have one. 😊
