I'd forgotten how much I hate Insular Minuscule. I'd forgotten how much it hurts, how long it takes to do it, and how if you stare at it too long it starts to look like a cross between Cyrillic and Sanskrit, especially if you're writing it in a non-English language with a lot of Gs and Ns.
I'm finally done with the lettering (except for two all-caps lines up at the top of the page), but then I have to do all that smegging knotwork. Once my hand stops throbbing.
