Looks great.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

Dr. Vitolo! I had no idea you were here!

 

Your iBook is an amazing resource! I spread the word whenever given the slightest chance, ever since I discovered pointed pen writing last July. Just recently, as part of my company's March of Dimes fundraiser, I offered a basic dip pen kit and 30 minutes to introduce the person to how to prep your nib, insert it, hold it, and then pointed them to resources that can get them started and your site and iBook was the top of the list.

 

I don't claim to be a calligrapher, my interest and skill level is better geared towards just developing a personal hand, but the fundamentals in your book gave me a great foundation upon which I could build.

 

Thank you!

That's beautiful. I can only hope I can grasp Spencerian so I have admirable penmanship.
