Penventory!

I have a lot of pens. That is not unusual for those who collect fountain pens, but I don't really consider myself a collector. I love to use my pens - so much that I as much as I tried, I can't really pare down the number of pens that I keep inked at one time. I have 30 pens inked...I just write a lot. In order to keep track of what ink is in what pen I use a spreadsheet in Google Docs. Check it out and let me know what you think.

By the way, the pen in the photo is an Elgin with a clear section and feed.

Round Robin Journal

I am part of a group of five people on Fountain Pen Network passing around journals round-robin style. We just started in January. On Tuesday, I will say goodbye to Greg's very nice looking Clairefontaine journal that I have carrying around with me for the past two weeks. It hase been an interesting experience to say the least. I can't wait to get the next one!

Penned Greetings!

While I am an all-around office supply junkie, my favorite writing instrument is a fountain pen. I have an embarrassingly large number of handwritten journals, a paper calendar, and have several pen pals so I have lots of opportunitiues to use them. As I also enjoy blogging, I decided to create one to document additions to my ever-growing collection of pens, papers, journals, inks as well as other musings. :)
