My handwriting, featuring gathered quotes for a book review (: Inks are Pilot Iroshizuku Ina-Ho and Diamine Grey, in a TWSBI 580 M and Vac700 F respectively; I'm starting to love this ink combination.

Wow, do I like your handwriting. Hmm... might have to see if I can copy it. I was going to say "steal," but... that sounds so unfriendly.

No...it's not theft ... See Tom Lehrer.

 

Plagiarize,

Let no one else's work evade your eyes,

Remember why the good lord made your eyes,

So don't shade your eyes,

But plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize -

Only be sure always to call it please 'research'.

My cursive is very rusty and unused, and rather too flowery to be useful in everyday writing. It used to be a lot nicer when I was in K-12 school. Hmm... I should improve it :)

Skyppere, I'm filing your first pic under "why I insist on using waterproof ink," although as a graphic it's quite gorgeous! What ink was that and did you keep the... artwork?

Augustana, I think your handwriting is very nice and appropriate for everyday writing. Not "too flowery" at all.

What's up with the stamp? Do you number all your pages? Just curious.

 

 

I use a numberer on my notebooks where I have multiple topics and will need to reorganize them. I'm still using the same auto-numberer that I bought in college.

I wish I could take credit for this great idea... but like galvanized rubber and penicillin this was a happy accident. I had this letter laying on my table and decided to mist some plants...

I have a scrap book full of snail related items but I'm not sure it this got in there...

I'm not familiar with numberers; I assume it increments the number automatically with each stamp? How does this facilitate separating the topics? Do you have a different numberer for each topic? Sorry if these questions are a bit silly, just trying to figure it out.

Nah, I just grab a notebook and start numbering. The pages are then sequential. As I went to classes, the notes would be in date order. Let's say I was taking, Marketing, Finance and Accounting (three classes). Before the each test, I would pull all the sheets out and file them in the class notebook. I could then put Marketing notes in order in the Marketing notebook even if I didn't write the date or page x o fy info on each page. HTH

not expert delivering an opinion, but I think your example above proves this flexible nib has found a very good hand in which to ultimately be used to its full potential:)

 

Mind if I ask what ink are you using, its a lovely blue.

This is nice!

 

I am trying to order the Ahab from Noodlers as it seems they no longer bring them into the UK.

Love the colour of this ink, is it more of a copper or brown colour, overall very nice.

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
