How should adults choose copybooks when practicing calligraphy?

When adults practice calligraphy, choosing a copybook is a very important step. The following are some suggestions to help you choose a suitable copybook:

1. Beginners can choose basic copybooks. For adults who have no calligraphy foundation, choosing a basic copybook is very suitable. Such copybooks usually contain basic strokes and glyphs, as well as some commonly used Chinese characters. By learning these basic contents, you can gradually master the basic skills of calligraphy.

2. Choose copybooks based on your own interests. If you are particularly interested in a certain font or style, you can choose the corresponding copybook for practice. For example, if you like regular script, you can choose a regular script copybook; if you like running script, you can choose a running script copybook. This will allow you to be more engaged in practice and improve the effectiveness of your learning.

3. Consider the difficulty of the copybook. When adults practice calligraphy, they should choose appropriate copybooks based on their own level. If you are a beginner, choose a copybook with moderate difficulty. Do not choose a copybook that is too complicated, so as not to increase the difficulty of learning. As your level improves, you can gradually choose more difficult copybooks to challenge.

4. Refer to other people’s recommendations. If you're not sure how to choose a copybook, you can refer to other people's recommendations. You can consult calligraphy teachers, calligraphy enthusiasts, or bookstore staff to learn about their reviews and recommendations for different copybooks. This can help you better choose a copybook that suits you.
