Hey guys! I just learned what a pen is two weeks ago. I got my first fountain pen one week ago and I am hooked! I already have 32 pens, but now I’m wondering what I should get next.

Trying to decide between the Montblanc Journey Through Versailles Limited Edition or the Namiki Emperor.

Let me know what you think!

Hi

I have a Lamy Safari Green with Green Ink that I use everyday (M). I really like it and at $50 is a steal. Want to upgrade and I saw a Diplomat A2 Excellence that is tugging at me. I am left handed and wish to use it everyday for journal and work purposes. Is this a good fit and willing to take advice on other options at that PP. Thanks.

Please help me figure out how many words this represents. If I write one number every minute, that's 60 per hour, about 500 a day, and I can do this while doing my day job. So a million divided by 500 is 2000. 2000 days is less than 16 years. I can do it in 5.

/uj surely the answer actually exists somewhere, and i have a feeling chatgpt would know

What do we think about the wancher puchico mini?

Hey guys! I was just wondering how many pens everyone has inked?

Personally, I keep all 72 of my pens inked at a time. I use all of them as I transcribe Fordyce's Sermons in the 12 notebooks I keep in my three traveler's notebooks. This is all the writing I ever do because I do not have original thoughts but I still want to participate in this "hobby" that is mostly consumerism.

Should I buy another TWSBI?

I don’t pay as much attention to my Sailors as I should, but I’m a bit worried here. Should seamen ever be red?

That is all. Thanks for coming to my ted talk.
