I love the smell of fountain pen ink in the morning.

Goodness! You writing shows substantial personal style while at the same time is very effortless to read. What a winning combination! At some point I would like to develop a bit of personal style...but for now I am struggling just to get the basic corrected.

Richiwald. Business Spencerian. Yes. You are right. I should practice it a bit.

I believe Spencerian Business Hand was the precursor to the Palmer method most of us old folks learned in elementary school. I have been practicing the Business hand since I came back to the light side a few months ago.

Does anyone actually use this script anymore as a day to day type of writing? Spencerian Script

You possess the gift of a beautiful calligraphy. The shading is so distinct it's hard to believe it's done with a fountain pen. I think I have to take back every derogatory comment I ever made about Monte Blanc. Are the nibs modified from newer MBs or vintage MBs? Did you do the modifications?

I've been practicing my daily shaded hand, but obviously not my spelling.

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
