square ups
re square ups:
start by doing the square up really simply first
letter spacing tight, lines tight on top of one another
everything to the same length
then if you want to add space or flourishes, do so
but, keep the square up in place
don't go so far out that baselines wobble, etc
unless you do it purposely
meaning, if you've tried to get fancy already, go back and do them straight up first
then add symbols, flourishes, letter spacing, etc
if this isn't clear, lemme know
want you all to get this now, this week, so that we're not stuck on it for a few weeks
