How to learn characters??

guest27149	Hi all, I can recognize about a thousand characters but when it comes to reproduce them, I can't remember how to write more than half of them. It depends on the complexity of the character but I make stupid mistakes even in simple characters like 叫 as I usually forget which component comes first (I think, in this case, it is because 叫 and 收 interfere). Do you have (or is there) a method to remember the strokes? Sorry if this was discussed before but I tried a few searches on the forum with no success. Please give the link if there is a thread for it.

The best thing is to read a lot and write a lot, just keep on writing essays, diaries. Not typing, but writing by hand, then you'll practice you're stroke order.

For writing I advise you to write a few characters everyday! And after a while you'll see many characters have the same phonetic element or radical.
