Sharon is The Calgary Mystery Lady. Originally from the southern United States, she came to Canada a long time ago. As a child, she read adventure stories, science fiction, and mysteries, and knew more about bush pilots than she did about social graces.

Marathon Writer — Trench Warfare

Loved this collection of comments and techniques from different letter artists. I found 7 keepers: letter styles I want to practice and experiment with. Great for anyone who wants to see letters in a lot of different ways.
