Is Your Calligraphy Shaky?!
β
I get asked alllll the time in ShowMeYourDrills: "Why are my drills so shaky?!"
The causes can vary, so I've put together a checklist of reasons why that might be happening!

I'm a FRAYED not (ha, see what I did there????) β Honestly, once your brush pens are frayed, there isn't much you can do to fix them. I would just put them in a pile and use them in instances where you don't need the precision (like, use them for drawing, or on projects with rough paper, etc). β The best defence against frayed pens is using them properly from the get-go: hold them properly, make sure you're using the right paper, and rotate them in between every couple of strokes.
