@Joseph, no I am actually a righty. I can do some stuff with my left hand, but for some reason it's easier for me to do copperplate/spencerian lettering with one of these.
@Joseph yeah. for my bigger stuff i usually pencil it out first. It's for a blog post where I'm going to break down my process for my lettering. I am going to talk a little about the difference between copperplate vs. spencerian. I used to try to do it all out in one shot where now i kinda focus on the individual strokes. I know having the angled grid and turning the paper some helped me.
