I like that quote!

I've never heard of charcoal paper; I'll have to Google it!

(By the way, I really like your gothicized italic!)

Thanks Kim,

Charcoal paper is very nice to write on and you can get it in pads at most craft stores. It is a bit textured but it takes a small quill very well.

Nice work David!

Duh. Charcoal paper. Paper made for charcoal not paper made from charcoal.

**blush**

Yes. I have heard of that; I've used it.

Thank you Nikheel.

No need to blush, Kim, I do the same thing all the time.
