Beginning Calligraphy – Capitals with Patti Paulus, Calligrapher & Book Maker
Patti is always thrilled to share her love of letters so why not add capitals to your lettering skillset! In this class you will learn the
foundations of strong calligraphic capital letters. (And remember, you don’t have to have good handwriting to learn calligraphy!) The workshop focus will be on creating Roman Capitals with only 6 basic strokes written with a broad edged tool.  The perfect addition for those who’ve already taken the Italic or Bookhand class, each student can expect to receive several exemplars (templates), writing paper suitable for calligraphy. Calligraphic writing tools will be available for your use with an option to purchase at the end of the workshop.  If you purchased a Pilot Parallel Pen, in a previous class please bring it with you. Plan to slow down and meditatively practice the flow of black ink on paper to create beautiful letters.

Fictional Craftsmanship with Tom Glenn, Author
Writing good fiction requires creativity and craftsmanship, sometimes called technique or style. Creativity is innate; it can’t be taught. But craftsmanship is a learnable skill required to produce a publishable manuscript, work that will engage a reader to the point that she forgets she’s reading. This presentation offers the rudiments of craftsmanship unique to fiction—basic reference materials, formatting, copy editing, and wording and structure, with a primer on the construction of dialogue.
