And just like that, itā€™s July! Time has been absolutely ā›µļø Then again, time does what itā€™s suppose to.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer filled with good health and happiness.

Itā€™s been brutally hot here in Vancouver which has made filming challenging BUT I have a new video nearly finished. The plan is to publish this Sunday.šŸ¤žšŸ¾

Thanks for sticking around.

Hello Pen Friends šŸ‘‹šŸ¾ I wrote my Pelikan M805 Stresemann, Pelikan M800 Brown/Black, and Franklin Christoph Model 31 dry last week. All three are sitting it out this week. The M1000 wonā€™t last the entire week as the transparent barrel indicates, itā€™s nearly dry.

Inked up this week:

TWSBI Eco Jade, EF
Sailor Pro Gear Silver + Black, M
Pelikan SouverƤn M1000 Green/Black, EF

Iā€™ve been spending more time with the Sailor Pro Gear and Iā€™m falling back in love with the line and feedback from the medium Sailor nib. Itā€™s an interesting experiment to let a pen/nib rest a while before revisiting it after some time.

Have you fallen back in love with a fountain pen or nib you hadnā€™t used in a while? Or, did the time away solidify your feelings to keep it out of the rotation?

What are you writing with this week?

Happy writing šŸ–‹ļø

Happy May Pen Friends! Itā€™s FINALLY feeling like spring here in Vancouver, BC. These are the #fountainpens Iā€™ll be using this week. It is a #Pelikan affair:

Pelikan SouverƤn M600 Green/Black
Pelikan SouverƤn M800 Brown/Black
Pelikan #SouverƤn M805 Stresemann

Which pen and ink combinations are you reaching for this week?

Happy writing pen friends! I have a new video going live this Saturday! Thank you for your attention, support, and patience as I find an upload cadence that works best. I create when inspired and I will not rush the quality. I hope you appreciate my process.

Iā€™ve been writing with the Franklin Christoph Model 31 (Medium, Nagahara Stub Nib), and FC Honeycomb ink lately. What is your go-to fountain pen + ink combo this week?
