Given recent events at reddit, I wanted there to be a place for r/Tengwar members to land if an exodus became necessary.

Not mine but I found it really useful...

I hardly ever write anymore but when I do, I write in cursive so I decided to try writing English mode in a cursive style. I’m sure there’s quiet a few spelling mistakes, but I was trying to practice with minimal tecendil usage. It’s making me consider following an actual penmanship book, maybe Spencerian, but it was a pretty fun experiment either way. Chose “somewhere over the rainbow” at random.

It would be great to have an option for typing in tengwar. Of course, we can always just type in tengwar:

But then, the correct display is up to anybody who reads the post.
