It doesn't really help me get any better at the drawing itself PER SE (hey what do you think of my latin?).


In a way edges are further disconnected from the actual 3D shape of the thing you are drawing than shaded surfaces are. You are trying to draw edges first like they are the main part and easiest part of a drawing but edges are pretty hard to think about aren't they, why start with edges all the time (because you're trying to learn without a drawin book or drawin class, it seems like that's why)

It is possible to pretend you are scribbling on a 3D thing in space and end up with a 3D-looking thing even though you were only drawing lines and you didn't even really draw a lot of the edges http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/dhudock/images/Drawing_img47.jpg

pod people will send you a printed instructional packet to explain topics related to this in much greater detail. Just have to post your address
