Fragments of a name appear
And vanish like mist.

Well, it kinda sorta maybe looks like 西. The Buddha Board arrived in the mail this afternoon and the only reason I haven't noodled around with it more than I have is that I have a rather inconveniently positioned and still very raw blister that makes holding the brush awkward. (A pen is even worse.) It should be better tomorrow. It's hard to see in this photo but the "inkstone" is notched so you can lay the pen across the top. There's a second set of notches set a little farther back so you can also use it as an easel.
At least I won't be spilling ink on the carpet just yet....
