What makes a "Q" a "Q",
the tail. The "R" starts out with a minim stroke now just like with the "B" and the
"D" going to start up here. Think tall and thin come down like that, see how I made this
a little thinner through here. It looks more elegant, not as clunky. Now the "S" as long
spine on the "S" like so, think about this as being a narrow letter but this is different.
This stroke right here goes like this, so that's different than the Roman. The Roman
would go like this but this goes like this and this comes around lot like the "C". The
"T" can have a little hairline that comes above the line if it wants to, just to get
out of the way of the next letter here's our minim stroke.
Relaxed, very relaxed, see we're starting to get into, the "U" wasn't really there yet
so we're just pretending that it was there but it was beginning. There was the "W" we're
just intuiting a "W". Very relaxed now watch this, see how I did that? You don't have to
go back over this stroke or you don't want to have to, relax. Little bit below the line,
"Z", think tall, think slender and relaxed. There you go.
