A must for anyone interested in Calligraphy as a business!

This is an excellent book for those starting in the Calligraphy business. It is well written, easy to read and has many fine illustrations. The author has written a book that caters to the artist. He knows that a lot of artists have a hard time with sales and are often very critical of themselves. His philosophy is to jump in and start working with easier projects and you will gain experience and clients as you go. There are many helpful tecniques I haven't found in other calligraphy books, such as how to address envelopes, the proper way to fill in certificates, and what to do if you have made a mistake! A small book packed with extremely useful information. Note, this book does not include instructions on letter forms and basic calligraphy, you will need to refer to other books for that.
