How to Write Inscriptions in Hard Pen Calligraphy

Hard-pen calligraphy, if arranged horizontally, can be in a modern format: 202 1 year x month x day XXX volumes. If it is vertical, it should also be in the traditional format. Traditional book signing can have two paragraphs. Only the next paragraph is commonly used, and the format is: time (generally not Gregorian calendar)+(%place)+author+(respect) book, such as "Xin Chou Xia Yue respects the book in Gufengtang XX". In traditional calligraphy, dates are marked by years, and months are marked by lunar calendar, not specific to a certain day.
