Moontree Letterpress

Bucks County, Pennsylvania
A course in clean, single-stroke lettering.
Upright, even, all-caps writing, taught from the first warmup. Four modules move from strokes to the full alphabet, then writing at size, then real writing: the notecard, the envelope, and the letter. An ordinary pen and fifteen minutes at a time are enough.
Begin with Session 1.1
The Four Modules
1
Foundations
Set up well, loosen the arm, and learn the four strokes every letter is made of.

The Letters
The full alphabet in two families, straight and curved, plus numerals and the ampersand.

The Two Sizes
A letter that holds its shape at one size can fall apart at another. Size is its own skill, so it gets its own module: first a confident medium hand for envelope names and headings, then the small, steady hand your notes will actually be written in.

Speed & Real Life
Spacing and composition, speed, then the payoff: the notecard, the envelope, and the letter.
