Luckily, I live within about 20 miles from a Mitsuwa Marketplace store, and have been able to look through their book selection and find some very good books on calligraphy. I have discovered a lot of interesting writings and facts like Miyamoto Musashi being a famous calligrapher as well as swordsman and author. It's a fascinating world, only now becoming readily available here in the US.
I also discovered a great website devoted to calligraphy for anyone interested, at www.beyondcalligraphy.com. It has a great deal of fascinating information for anyone who is interested.
Thank you Kawaii Katsutoshi for introducing me to calligraphy and to Hobo-1 for translating it.
