PINNED FAQ

How do I request a card?

You can request up to 3 cards for free during openaskbox events! During those,
the /ask inbox opens up for a few hours, during which I try to write as many as
I can live on twitch and post them on tumblr.

After the event is over and I close that inbox, there are still a BUNCH of
leftover requests. This is how I fill the daily content queue, I use those up
til it’s empty again and then run another openaskbox.

On Saturdays at 3pm EST I write all 28 cards due to go up for the week from that
pool of leftover asks live on twitch and then queue them to go up after stream

What if I don’t wanna wait?

If you’d like to throw a bit of cash around instead of waiting, you can buy via
the etsy listing or you can tune in to those^ Saturday livestreams, there’s a
variety of ways to donate to get cards written for you on the spot

How do I buy the card I’ve requested?

The etsy listing is available here! Please remember to include in the notes of
the purchase which card(s) you want to buy. If you’d like me to bundle together
all the cards you’ve requested over a period of a few years, dm me here on the
blog and I can quote you on a cheaper bundle price

Why did you answer all those asks, it messed up my dash?

Sorry about that! So to keep all of that ^ organized, at the end of the month, I
answer about 112-140 leftover asks in order to record them to a proper “to-write
document”

It helps me keep organized, it allows me to easily search for spelling issues,
and it gets a few eyeballs on the request in case someone tries to slip an
obscure slur into their request that I’m not cool with writing (it has happened)

Lots of the regulars are used to this dash nonsense, but there are folks who
want to avoid it entirely. If you’re on mobile I’d just recommend unfollowing
for a while, but if you’re on desktop, you can blacklist the tag “added to
notepad” and go to xkit to tick the “fully hide blocked tags” option so it
clears up your dash

Wait I thought requests were closed, why can I still send things?

That’s because requests use /ask, but /submit is always open because it’s for
YOUR calligraphy, pet photos, fanart of man… etc. Requests are NOT open when
it’s not openaskbox day but feel free to send me cool shit YOU made anytime

Wait you have a twitch, do you do anything other than calligraphy?

Yep! Normally I play games on Fridays and run a GIANT minecraft build project on
Mondays (its a 1.4 mill block build in survival dw bout it). Currently I’m real
busy with the calligraphy stuff so I don’t have a new game picked out for
Friday, but I’ll let y'all know!

What are your regular writing tools and paper?

I mainly just use speedball nibs, specifically the c-series (c-0 through c-4)
because they’re angled flat nibs that let me do most blackletter hands I write.
I have a supply of leonardt thin tips for detailing and illustrating

As for paper, the cards you see on the daily are on plain index cue cards I buy
from staples. When commissioned/doing larger pieces, I work with a variety of
paper, including a 32 lb xerox paper that has juuuust a perfect amount of
lamination that avoids ink feathering, black paper that I bought a hundred
sheets of in 2019 and I no longer remember the label, and a BOATLOAD of
southworth’s ivory parchment paper at both 32 and 64 lb weights.
