I'd love to hear from you (I also collect post cards). Bill Griffin 7901 S. Council Rd #84 Oklahoma City, OK 73169

Dear Calligraphy Friends, Due to cancer surgery I've been unavailable for several months. In late March (2010) I got sick and ended up in the hospital. After 20 day, 8 hours of surgery and 7 days in ICU, I spent the next couple of months 99% in bed. Finally, as I began to heal, regain a little strength and start eating again, my life has slowly started to return to semi-normal. I still spend 50% or more of my time in bed. When I was diagnosed with inoperable colon and liver cancer, that left me with a few options. One decision I've made is to DENY CHEMO! Because the cancer has spread throughout many lymph nodes, there's little they can do. I decided the misery of CHEMO didn't offer me enough additional time. My life plans have changed drastically. No flea marketing til next year. Hopefully I can go to Mary's Swap Meet in OKC, OK a few times when the weather cools. But not much likelihood of travel or overnighters. I've lost 45 pounds (good but a hard way to get the weight off). Now at 180 I actually feel better. It's a good weight. Hopefully, I can maintain this weight range instead of gaining it back. If any of you need updated info on your linked pages here, please write to me. fleamarketers@lycos.com Hope to see everyone next year. I really miss you all at Locust Grove, Tahlequah, Sallisaw, County line in Arkansas, Anadarko, and everywhere else I travel. BILL GRIFFIN August 7, 2010

Calligraphy Resources

Please visit the ABOUT ME page for more info about my interests and involvement in calligraphy.

alligraphy has been around as long as the written word. In fact, any handwriting could be considered calligraphy. Calligraphy Resources Using This Site I have collected links from dozens of calligraphy, arts, and crafting sites. Then they have been sorted and link-checked. I accept you'll find dead links on this site. Hopefully, when I finish retesting and redesigning this site, they'll be eliminated. But don't worry about the dead links and please don't email me about them. UNLESS the link is to YOUR website. Please include a paragraph about your site content. But don't send sub pages as I am just linking to the main page, unless you have a section dedicated to calligraphy, arts, and crafts. Use your own judgement. I will visit any site before adding it. Send your link info to: scribeworx @ yahoo.com

The search box is for onsite searching. You can search for a word or words, a person, or a city, state, or country. There are some free downloads on the eBooks page. I've tried to describe each so you don't waste your time or my bandwidth downloading something that isn't what it sounded like... sound familiar? There's a group of links to OLD MANUSCRIPTS I thought you'd enjoy. If an item is available but has a cost involved, I'll disclose that BEFORE you click on the link. I want you to come back. I hope you'll find a few things to buy to help me cover the costs of the operation of the site. But I don't want to try to TRICK you to purchase items. If you're in the United States, (I'm in Oklahoma) I recommend you start with the USA SCRIBES link, above. Thank you for visiting.
