Letter out to LexieS (in tomorrow's mail).

Keepers of private notebooks are a different breed altogether, lonely and resistant rearrangers of things, anxious malcontents, children afflicted apparently at birth with some presentiment of loss. Joan Didion

Letter and card in from fncll. Also my letter to jaymac was returned to me, it got wet and part of her address washed away. :( Will re-send it on Monday.

About two years ago I started using a bit of paraffin wax to help with that - I just give a light rub over the addresses on an envelope, or the written areas of a postcard. I lucked out and found some canning paraffin in block form, but a candle stub works great too.

I usually write the address on the envelope with a permanent ink such as Diamine Registrar's ink to (hopefully) prevent that happening.

I was lucky with my first letter (PR American Blue and apparently no rain), used a ballpoint pen on the second and have since gotten Noodler's Heart of Darkness.

I have a Noodler's piston fill that's always inked with Baystate Blue. That's waterproof, right? Guess I'll just use that for envelopes all the time from now on. Although the really OCD part of me hates using different inks for the letter and the envelope.

I suppose you could write the letter in Baystate Blue as well?

I think BSB is water resistant. Not entirely waterproof
