Welcome Jim.
I'm glad you found our forum, and even more so that you find scrolling helpful to you (theraputic). As you've already heard, you're not alone there.
Being new to the craft can be very exciting, and there never seems to be enough time to cut all those wonderful patterns out there. You will find ample resources and talk on both fretwork and segmentation. (my favorites too)
I look forward to your contributions to our group and hearing about your adventures in scrolling.
Take care
Toni
