What, oh, what can you do with a dried-up marker? Lots! Here is a gorgeous alphabet Dryland, based on a 20th-century calligraphers' favorite called Neuland.
The letters are heavy, about 3 1/2 pen widths tall. The pen is held flat, so left-handers can write this just as well as their adroit counterparts. The other pen angle is 90°. Easy! To make the stroke look dryer, write faster.

| The only drawback of Dryland is that you have to get it right the first time--no touching it up. I rethought the U, and it shows. |
