I have a similar technique, except I sort of do it in reverse (erasing rather than drawing). Either way produces great results, but I find my way is a little easier to deal with irregular fonts and is very forgiving of mistakes . . .

• 1. Start with your background layer of course.
  
• 2. Add a text layer with a transparent background.
  
• 3. Duplicate your text layer 30-50 times (more text, or smoother animations, will require more layers). Hint: Before duplicating the layer, make it invisible, then all the duplicated layers will be invisible as well.
  
• 4. Starting with layer 2 (or background + 1), erase almost all of the text except the first part of the first letter. I find a 20pt eraser is great for the larger areas and 2-3pt is fine for the detailed erasing (I do this a lot with script fonts)
  
• 5. Make this layer invisible, select the next layer and make it visible.
  
• 6. As in step 4 erase most of the text, except leave a little bit more text.
  
• 7. Repeat steps 5-6 until you don't have to erase anymore text.
  
• 8. Delete any extra layers.

If you think you messed up any layer, don't worry! Just delete it and start over on the next one! Or paste in a fresh copy of the layer and start over with it if you discovered your problem later. And part of the beauty of this technique is you'll finish with EXACTLY what you started with since your last layer won't have any deletions on it.

And of course, my sample:



(To do multiple lines of text, just add a delay to the end of your last layer name (such as '(2000ms)'), copy your background layer above it, and repeat the steps with a new text layer)
