In looking over my "goals," I realize I've fallen into the trap of making them so vague as to making it impossible to say if I've reached them or not. They are more like desires than goals, so
1. Learn Spanish (this doesn't really involve calligraphy, but I mentioned it before, so I'll include it here again) becomes If I decide to learn Spanish, at the end of 12 months, be able to speak and understand simple sentences, and know the definition of the 500 most common words. I'll be looking at online and if available in person courses to do this.
2. Improve my Spencerian. This is difficult to measure. Any little improvement could be said to achieving the goal, but my standard will be to create a piece that I would be proud to frame and hang on my own wall, or of such quality that it would not look out of place in in Michael Sull's
Spencerian Script and Ornamental Penmanship in the opinion of a master penman.
3. Learn Kurrent better means being able to write in Kurrent without need to refer to an exemplar, that is, write letters/compositions in English fluidly using Kurrent, having ingrained the forms well enough to not think about it, as I do in writing English.
4. Learn French or German Ronde, to which I'd add half uncial
@K-2 , which means create a piece or pieces using this hand judged to be at least good by someone qualified to so judge (hard to do yourself , I think).
