This practice book is arranged in the order of writing exercises, including explanations, model characters, red tracing, and copying practice. There are model characters or strokes, and similar characters. There are review sections. Learners must insist on writing one page each day, totaling 79 pages, and need to practice for 88 days. The review sections on each page may not be directly related to the strokes or single characters. Red tracing and copying are essential learning steps for beginners. Only by carefully tracing and copying from the beginning can one gradually master the key points. During tracing or copying, one must first carefully study the writing principles and stroke order on each page.
Practice is mainly self-directed, which requires each learner to demonstrate diligent and pragmatic initiative. One must study diligently, learn solidly, follow the steps systematically, and persist in learning each day. One must not be impatient and should not expect to achieve success overnight. The rewards belong to those who work diligently. Anyone who persists in learning in this way is bound to write beautiful calligraphy.
