Not bad, for an 82 year old pen!

I hope I look that good at 82!

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

I gave my 7 year old son the same blue Sellner pen as his very first fountain pen! I also bought it from Just Write.

He loves it, and thinks it's a very special pen just like mum's fountain pens. He doesn't know yet that Santa will be delivering him a Pelikano Junior as an upgrade, as he has been practicing to write neatly.

Most Excellent! Santa has great taste and gives good rewards.

Sorry for the faux-pas! I'm using Rohrer & Klingner's "Blu Mare" --a bit slow to dry, but really great color.

 

And your Eisenstadt is really supreme! Beautiful pen, ink, and hand!

No "fox paws" here! Just a beautiful blue ink....and beautiful handiwork! Of course now that I know the name I need to find a bottle, for the two times I am going to write with the ink! : :D

Noodler's Ahab inked with Noodler's Walnut. This is the first time I've tried a brown ink and I like it a lot! Also up top is my Pilot 78G (in a Metropolitan body) where I used Noodler's Navy. Such a nice ink, love that shading, although you can't see that in this picture, of course..

My Waterman 14 wet noodle eyedropper shows off some new KWZI iron gall inks. It has a slip cap and is one of my oldest pens, and my only wet noodle nibbed pen. After over a year, I'm just now getting the hang of working this nib! Rhodia 80g dotpad paper.

Breathe. Take one step at a time. Don't sweat the small stuff. You're not getting older, you are only moving through time. Be calm and positive.
