I’m ju...Greetings from a fellow fountain pen lover. I’m just getting back into fountain pens in a big way. I’m a writer, and I use only a fountain pen to write. But until recently I’d been using my trusty Waterman Phileas which, the more I learn, is really not that trustworthy at all. I’d often have to unscrew the pen and squeeze the cartridge to get the ink flowing. My under-appreciated school-bus yellow Aurora, on the other hand, writes first time, every time.<br /><br />I just discovered the TESBI Eco (Medium) in a gorgeous purple, and my how enjoyable the writing experience is! I have it filled with a sample of Sailor 750, which flows so smoothly. I love the TWSBI so much that I ordered an exact copy as backup. I also ordered a TWSBI Eco with a stub nib to experiment with.<br /><br />I also have been ordering dozens of ink samples from Goulet, trying to find my perfect purple. I think I have found it in the Sailor 750, but the 753 is awfully alluring and will be my next fill.<br /><br />Oh, and I just downloaded the Kindle version of one of your books, Looks like it’s going to be a fun Sunday afternoon!GingerThreadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01884520396280959288noreply@blogger.com
