(Paper is so-so quality Blasetti, that's why you don't see much shading).

I have a Pilot Falcon in my collection -- one of the more expensive pens I own. I think you will soon love your Falcon.

 

I find that some of the really cheap pens are great writers as well. On eBay, have acquired several Wing Sung 3008 pens from Shanghai. Very pretty pens and write very well indeed. I can hardly believe they only cost me a few dollars each.

 

Enjoy,

Signor Umberto Eco, RIP... I'm so glad I got to see him and listen to one of his lectures during a conference. Great speaker.

I think I may have to try those Wing Sungs, I had a look and they are ridiculously cheap, with postage included. They look quite attractive too.

 

My Pilot Falcon isn't here yet. I have a sneaking suspicion that I'm going to get a card through the door telling me to pay VAT + administrative charges on the value of pen. That could be a very costly pen in the end! Bought from US...couldn't find an EF over here.

It's been fun finding this passage in an anthology where a good percentage of the words written are filler, empty, useless or too vague to make any meaning clear.

 

Faber-Castell Loom B (can't wait for the converter to arrive so I can try all the inks I have with this nib and see if there's one with which it won't hard start so often),

since we've just been treated to some Eric Arthur Blair - aka Orwell - there's no excuse for not adding a tad more ................ below are his rules for guidance to plain writing, and which he saw as our everyday need to foster language as an instrument for expressing, and not concealing, clear thought.

 

1. Never use a metaphor, simile or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.

 

2. Never use a long word when a short one will do.

 

3. If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.

 

4. Never use the passive where you can use the accusative.

 

5. Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent (I've let this stand in view of the fact that this thread is English language only).

 

6. Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.

I love this passage because it shows plainly how Dorian's moral sense slithers out of the window into nothingness, or more precisely, is sucked into the portrait along with wounds and aging.
