Hello Guys!
Just want to share my hand-made penmanship book. Despite the fact I am really bad at handwriting in any language I try to write (Russian/Ukrainian; English; or Japanese) this book not only do help me to figure out how to write different kanjis but also helps me a lot to remember kanji I have to learn.
All started from [this](https://ibb.co/2ccSqDL). It is the basis of my penmanship. It takes me about 15 minutes to draw two pages like this.
I’m writing not only the kanjis but also their On-Yomi (音読み), Kun-Yomi (訓読み), number of strokes (数画) and meaning (意味)
In the end, everything comes to [this](https://ibb.co/4V6J2tv) and [this](https://ibb.co/fGgGvTr).
Some of my friends said that I gave up fulfilling this book really soon, but right now in my book 172 kanjis and I still have the plan to finish all of the pages in this notebook!

Before somebody here try to attack you because they didn’t need to do something like this, I want to say job well done.
We all do things that we enjoy and we can most certainly mix language learning and things we like to do.
As for me, i like fountain pens, inks, and calligraphy. So i tend to just practice whole sheets just for several kanji without knowing what they sound like nor what they mean (i read the english meaning once and that’s it). Because of this, we I see new japanese words with kanji, I don’t have to squint and figure out what that kanji is, because I wrote them already – i just have to associate them with words.
You might also want to have a lighter hand on the lines, i see the paper creasing too much for the pencil ones. The marker ones are better tho.
Good job!
