Hello,

 

So Lets just tell the story that inevitably let me here....

 

When I was a young boy school introduced me to a fountain pen, and even though I'm a dyslectic fu... person I started writing.

Doodles became stories and stories became poems till I drew attention to myself for handing in my assignments in rhyme.

 

Most of my early stuff got lost in a school fire, of which I was innocent ofc...

And well the joy to write with a fountain pen slipped away from me and after that went the joy of writing itself.

 

One day cleaning my room I found my school pen and things started rolling as I stopped using rollerballs.

 

So now I got some more pens and started writing more and more, and now I have boxes of journals full with short stories and poems and a few books that will probably never get their end on paper.

 

But since this small collection of pens all have their own character and I want to get the most out of all of them I found my way here.

This is me, looking forward to speak to you ppl

Here I lay my soul in ink.
Here i lay my soul in ink.
Fearing what others think.
Will they like it, as I do?
Will they hate it, how I used to?

Here I lay my soul in ink.
Hoping what others think.
Will it show them who I am?
What I can not, what I can.

Here I lay my soul in ink.
Surprised of what others think.
It is nothing like I thought.
It is what karma brought.

Here I lay my soul in ink.
Loving what others think.
It reflects what I am,
A poet, a child and a man.

Hallo en hartelijk welkom bij FPN.

 

 

Good to have you here on the forum

 

Interesting poem, ideally you would have written it by hand and then posted a picture of it, but the poem by itself is quite good. :thumbup:

 

What type of pens have you got so far (so far as surely more will follow.... once you are a member here...)

 

Enjoy the forum

Dankje.

 

Well I write all my poems and stories with fountain pen, and well I actually have a picture of this poem somewhere...

Posted it on a competition on a watch forum I'm on and won a custom pen which is in the making right now at sawdust and ink in australia.

Ok I expect you guys want a picture of my collection, that will fallow which will help because most of the time I only know the brand and no types.

 

So for now a small list:

 

Got a sheaffer which is a great pen but still looking for the right ink cause it is a fast flower.

Got a basic Parker

Couple of Lamy's

Got a great dipping pen which really needs a picture....

and a couple of pens Of which I don't know the brand of.

And some broken down retro pens of which I really hope I did not threw out since I might be able to fix them with info from here.

 

Will make some pictures later today, D.ick how is our country represented here?

A couple of years ago we tried meeting with a group of enthusiasts but after two meetings (one in Utrecht and one in Den Haag), it seems to have faded to the background.

Welcome, PetshaFey !

Dyslexia is manifested in many forms. You seem to have managed yours with successful brilliance and joy.

FPN is a very diverse community. There are more like you, than you realize.

 

The Creator, who gave you the dyslexia, also gave you a poet's heart and soul, and a passion for life.

Share it generously.

 

Write with joy.

Zum Augenblicke dürft ich sagen:
Verweile doch, du bist so schön !

Welkom!

 

I'm also from the Netherlands and new here as well. So far the friendly folks at FPN have been great to me, giving me all kinds of advice on my quest to improve my handwriting.

 

I'm looking forward to reading more of your poetry!

Hello Dutchie

 

Hartelijk welkom :-)

 

I am a Dutchie too, from Breda who lives in Austria now but I visit Holland frequently.

 

I really liked your Poem maybe your nickname should be Joost van den Vondel (a Dutch poet from the middel ages... for all non Dutch).

 

I hope to be seeing more of them in the future. Probably handwritten with one of your fountain pens...

 

By the way my handwriting was horrible in school . I even got remedial teeaching for that... It's now far from being Calligraphy but it's a lot better now. And er the calligraphy bit... I will be working on that in the future...

 

I hope you enjoy both your fountain pens and this website as much as i enjoyed your poem...

 

Kindest regards,

 

Peter Vlutters

Tricked throughout the centuries...

For centuries people had been tricked by kings & "religion-alism"

In the 20th century people got tricked by communism

Today people get tricked by (neo)capitalism :)

      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
