The effect of writing and drawing on rice paper is better, and it is a bit wasteful to practice calligraphy. If you suddenly change from coarse paper to rice paper (base paper), it will be a little uncomfortable. The poorly controlled rice paper is even worse than coarse paper.
If you write a work, mount it, etc. It is more effective and professional, using rice paper.
It is recommended to use edge paper ("calligraphy practice paper you said") in the practice stage.
