Om The Life of Letters

A podcast on the history (and future) of calligraphy, penmanship, hand writing, lettering and much more. Hosted by me, Laura Edralin! I am on a journey to fill the gaps in my knowledge as a calligrapher, having light-hearted conversations with historians, artists, and stationery experts to discover the stories behind the pen and beneath the ink. This is for people who love the scratch of a nib on paper, who collect notebooks they’re too afraid to use, and who wonder what our writing says about us—past, present, and future. So, whether you're a calligraphy enthusiast, a history lover, or just curious about the stories behind the letters we write, join me for The Life of Letters. I’m not in this alone! This new podcast is produced by fellow calligraphy lover, Heidi Cullip. Follow us on Instagram @thelifeofletterspodcast Find Laura @lauraletterslife | lauraletterslife.com
