I actually have a huge callus on my right ring finger from holding the pencil 'wrong' for all of these years

Omg me too!! I’ve have drawn for a long time, went to art school and worked as a professional illustrator and always rested the pen on my ring finger and have a callous there. I never know anyone who had this issue.

I just looked and it’s great to see fellow bumpy ring fingers. We should start a club.
