What are you journaling? I was raised to write a kind of diary
for myself or write letters to family and friends. It was
always fun to get something back in the mail address to me: ESQ.

I received a few quality fountain pens back in the day. I
loved/hated using them. I did not always master the best flow of
the ink. And at least one of them dried up and could not be
replaced.

I have forgotten about the contruction of fountain pens. Do they
both have internal ink bladders? That's the thing that one of
my favourite pens had and dried up enough to crack and then
leaked ink.
Journals and calligraphy kits are having a modest reinterest in
my shop.
