Post: What's your least favorite kanji to write?

I really dislike writing 一. There's just nothing there almost. It feels like it should go on, but then it doesn't. Very big let down, that one is.

Post: Are there any additional steps I should take?

I have restarted RtK for the third time in as many years, and I am at the point where I always stop. This time, I have taken it pretty slow to avoid the burnout that I normally face (Yay, I'm not bur...
