Calligraphy is Fun TV Series' Tapes

Four of my video tapes related to my TV Show, Calligraphy is Fun, by Abraham Lincoln. I did a 13-week television series shown on PBS stations, The Leaning Channel and on local stations who could choose my tapes and show them on their station. As a result I became the best known scribe and calligrapher in the world and only Alfred Fairbanks from London, who was a friend of mine, was more widely known. It was a whole new learning experience for me because until then I had only appeared on television shows as a calligrapher. Now I was hosting my own program.

Calligraphy is Fun Book

This is one of four books I wrote for my television show, Calligraphy is Fun. My show was shown on Public Television Stations and on The Learning Channel and Discovery channels around the world. As a result of the 13-week shows (each show lasted 30 minutes) I became know around the world as a scribe and calligrapher. I was asked if I would do the show and write three or four books to be sold during intermission and I said I would. I was given a check for $5,000.00 up front with the promise of more checks in the future from income generated by the sale of the books on TV. Thai is a whole other story.

Rain on the skylight. Pitter-patter. Not cold enough for snow or ice but nice to hear the rain. Read the story. I used to draw a lot. ...
