ghetifal asked: I’m just getting into calligraphy and want to write something for a special occasion. What kind of paper should I use? Any brands of parchment or anything in particular? Also, I’m using an old Sheaffer Calligraphy Pen that came in a kit. Any suggestions for a new fountain pen or calligraphy pen or something? Any brands in particular? I don’t want to spend too much money on it though (no more than $50 for a pen for me). Thanks.

love_to_knit! asked: My calligraphy pen came with four nibs, but I can’t get ink to come out of some of them. Do each of the nibs need its own ink? Why isn’t the ink coming out?

toastedguitars asked: I’m just getting into calligraphy and I got a glass pen and some ink for Christmas – I’ve used pens with normal nibs and I’ve practiced my writing and all that, but now I have this glass pen and I am stuck. How is it supposed to work? I’m having difficulty…

randomlythinkative asked: I am looking for someone who can design a tattoo for me in Arabic calligraphy. I want to be sure that it is accurate. I want it to read “Look at the Darkness, giving birth to the Sun” . It is from a book that Khalil Gibran originally wrote in Arabic. I am considering different shapes for it: circle, maybe teardrop. Any other suggestions about shape are welcomed. I have looked online and all the calligraphy services are very expensive with no guarantees about the quality of the work. I don’t want to pay for something I may not be satisfied with. Can anyone help?
