The Signet’s Office will be hosting an East Kingdom Scribal Get
Together at Pennsic, in EK Royal at 2pm on Sunday, August 7. Goodies
will be served!

This is an informal gathering: a chance for the scribes to get to know
each other a bit better, to see each other’s work, and for the Office
to show its appreciation for all the amazing work of the scribes of
the East.

Please bring your portfolios! I know we’re all living in the digital
age, but if you can possibly bring something that shows your work
(even just printing out your 3 favorite pieces), that would be great.
It is always inspiring to see other scribes’ work, and get to talk to
them about it.

New scribes are also very welcome.

Please contact Mistress Eva Woderose with any questions.

L’Office du Signet sera hôte d’une rencontre des Scribes du Royaume de l’Est à Pennsic, dans le campement Royal de l’Est le dimanche 7 août, à 2pm. De petites gâteries vous seront servies !

Ceci se veut une rencontre informelle: une chance pour les scribes d’apprendre à se connaître un peu mieux, d’apprécier le travail des autres, ainsi qu’une occasion pour l’Office de démontrer son appréciation pour le travail extraordinaire effectué par les scribes de l’Est.

Veuillez amener vos portfolios ! Je sais que nous vivons tous dans une ère digitale, mais si vous pouviez possiblement emmener quelque chose qui démontre votre travail (même peut-être seulement imprimer vos 3 pièces préférées), ce serait fortement apprécié. Il est toujours inspirant de voir le travail d’autres scribes, en plus de pouvoir en discuter avec eux.

Les nouveaux scribes sont aussi les bienvenus.

Veuillez contacter Maîtresse Eva Woderose avec vos questions:

Scroll - Sagittarius for Ahtor Lys MacDavit by Ygraine of Kellswood - 2002

Wording, layout, calligraphy and gilding done.

Here, in the East, we are lucky to receive original works of art to commemorate our awards and honors, with the artwork, lettering and words created specifically for each recipient. (Please browse the Signet Gallery for some outstanding examples.)  This is not true in every kingdom. In some parts of the Known World, mass-produced documents are personalized to some degree, or recipients receive nothing from the Crown and commission their own documents, or in a number of areas individual scrolls are created but the text is the same for every recipient of a given award.

A lot of effort goes into the process that results in the presentations and proclamations you see in Court – Continue reading →

scribeAll Things Scribal – Late Winter Northern Edition

MARCH 9th, 2013
Eliot Baptist Church
912 Harold Dow Highway
Eliot, Maine 03903

Greetings to the East! We are looking for teachers for ALL THINGS SCRIBAL! We would love teachers for all levels of classes.

  • Do you want to teach but don’t know what to teach? Contact Honig or Camille and we can tell you what some of the “requested” classes are.  For example, I would like someone who is very good at fixing mistakes to hold a class. Please show scribes how to scrape, dab, cover, fudge and fix those scrolls that need it. Nobody wants to learn how to fix on a scroll that is due in a few days.
  • Do you have a talent for writing words? We would love to know some of your process! How do you make it look so easy?
  • Do you have a little trick you would like to share? We are going to set up stations for the 30 Second Scribal University…for example: I want a refresher on how to use an Ames lettering guide but don’t need to sit through the beginning calligraphers class.
  • Would you like to consult on scrolls? Someone may be having trouble with a small part of the process and the nearest scribe lives far away.

To join in the fun, or simply ask a question, please email:

Ro Honig von Sommerfeldt   or  Camille De Jardins

We can also be reached over Facebook.
