I have number of pens. I keep them with me and use them when I can. I have found I do so much better with a real piece of paper. It is real, it has substance, it does innocently disappear behind Spider Solitaire.
I of course love my fountain pens. Love the ink the blotches, the purple inky fingers. I love the way they write, the way they make me write. I don't mind the mess, the lack of ink at the most inopportune time. I love the bottles I have to care around and the look on the TSA guy's face when he opens a bottle still does not understand.
Good paper, good ink, good friends. It is a good thing. I am going through drawers and boxes. Who knows what will show up in your mail box.
Twenty Years, Two Hundred and Forty Months, Seven Thousand Days, and Three Hundred Days. Since we started chasing Leukemia.
