Christine: One of my apprentice's does it, and teaches it at Pennsic. She resides in AEthelmearc, and would probably not be adverse to talking with you. She is not on this list because of time constraints, but I carbon copying this reply to her.

Greetings, I'm new to this, and my main interest is calligraphy (as opposed to illumination). I'm looking for online help to learn styles, since I don't know any right now. I should also mention that I'm from Argentina, and there are no scribes here and I haven't been able to find anything at all at the library.
