Cf. Theron P. Elliot & Lawrence Schoen's article "Writing Klingon: The Easy
Way" in HolQeD 2.2 (June 1993): 10-11 for one method.
The Interstellar Language School sells Glen Proechel's _pIqaD paQDI'norgh:
An Alien Writing System Primer_. This is a 44 p. workbook teaching another
handwriting method for writing and learning to read printed pIqaD. Contact
Ken Traft (ILS Acting Director while Glen is in Russia) at [email protected]
for price and availability.
As I've never particularly wanted to write pIqaD, I really can't recommend
one system over another but both provide stroke by stroke instructions.
