There seems to be a number of members who live in southern Louisiana. I am would like to know if any one is interested in getting together for a meeting at a restaurant, coffee shop, or bookstore in Baton Rouge or New Orleans metro area or points in between.

None of us can have as many virtues as the fountain-pen, or half its cussedness; but we can try” Mark Twain

Reviving an old thread here, but I'm in New Orleans and would be interested in getting together...

 

Any takers?

Depending on the "when"....yes! I am not from the N.O. area, but I would very much like to see a gathering in The Big Easy! I know of two other Alabamians who may well be interested too.

I will be more able to attend in the fall....late September to Christmas , any time in between works fairly well for me. If there were to be such a gathering, it might be fun to do a FP scavenger hunt in the shops along Magazine St.

Nothing really "new" to my post here...just bumping the thread in hopes that it will remain alive and thrive!

The Alabama Fountain Pen Club is planning a "Swap Meet" soon, probably to be held in Montgomery ( as a central location).... it would be nice to see some coastal neighbors there too, ya'll! See FB page if you are interested!

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
