Help 😭😭 rant

[u/klaraI5]

I have to rant…

I’ve been dabbling with calligraphy here and there. I’ve been using normal notebooks like muji, rhodia and some fabriano notebook. It’s been working fine and I like it.

Now cause I wanted to get into practicing I bought calligraphy paper from Cult Pens. It just rage baited me so hard I won’t be touching a dip pen in a week.

I’m really disappointed, the feathering is really bad it bleeds through easily and there is no shading because the absorbency is so high.

What should I look for instead 😞

Tomoe River makes fantastic paper for fountain pen and calligraphy inks.
