Why Fountain Pens (self.fountain_pens)

I've always searched for a pen that has the right feel, writes nicely, and has an ink color that is perfect. Fountain pens offer all this.

I've got pens from really cheap ones up to a nice retractable pilot. Every pen has it's advantages and quirks. My favorite changes from day to day.

Thought I'd make a place where people can discuss!

Current favorite ink: Noodler's Black Widow

I actually hold my pen/pencils incorrectly. The way that I hold it is actually the proper angle for fountain pens, whereas it's wrong for most other pens. That and a habit of taking detailed notes and practicing handwriting has driven me into obsession.

My current favorite: Pilot Prera
