"In sharing one's writing, one shares a bit more of one's personality."
How I did it: I copied in longhand writing the following excerpt from "Clarissa" by Samuel Richardson:
To Mr. JAMES HARLOWE.
Friday Morning.SIR,
If, notwithstanding your prohibition, I should be silent, on occasion of your last, you would, perhaps, conclude, that I was consenting to go to my uncle Antony’s upon the condition you mention. My Father must do as he pleases with his child. He may turn me out of his doors, if he thinks fit, or give you leave to do it; but (loth as I am to say it) I should think it very hard to be carried by force to any-body’s house, when I have one of my own to go to.
Lessons & tips:
- Paper
- Pen
Or better yet:
- Parchment paper
- Fountain pen
;)
It took me 1 day.
It made me a longhand writer
See more progress on: write out a bit of Richardson's "Clarissa" so people can see my handwriting
