Liz, that is awesom.

 

From DeAtramentis to Waterman to Iroshizuku.

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

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison

:D Thanks. It took a while to come up with an idea for this one (except the ink - I had a nice boring, "there are 12 billion of these in use at any minute so they'll never know it was mine that was used for the ransom note", Jinhao cartridge in mind from the beginning).

We will miss you, Ian.

Curses, I was so desperate for the QE pen that I never even considered forensics.

Just as well my blood is a mixture of diamine poppy red and syrah then.

 

Mwaaaaaahahaaaa

The threat still stands....tick, tock, tick tock.

I would never handwrite my ransom notes, but if I did, I'd use Quink or Montblanc Royal Blue. Under no circumstances would I use a Noodler's, KWZI, Robert Oster or Blackstone ink. (The batches are way too small and identifiable.)

To say nothing of the unique properties - stuff like shading and sheen.

 

It's why I chose Serenity Blue. It it pretty nondescript/ubiquitous and much harder to trace. Who doesn't like blue?

Now don't you worry a bit!

 

After worrying for a good while, I was finally fortunate to get my own bottle of BOOKWORM, from those "nice folks @ Vanness Pens," I will gladly send it to you, after you so generously offered to share one of your bottles with me! We will just throw you an "INK shower," that will "show them!"

Bye, bye Claudia. It was nice to meet you.

 

Farewell.

 

Never met the woman.

 

Claudia, WHO?

 

A good Friend of mine, loves to tell the story of a time in College when she was in an automobile accident & taken to the Hospital for treatment. She couldn't remember her Parent's insurance information & had them call her Mother, who answered the phone, late in the nite & replied, (after being asked the information,) "I don't have a Daughter." (I knew her Mother & believed the story!)

OMG, that's too funny. I only copied notes where the kidnapped was returned alive and unabused.

Pssst!

I couldn't add it to the challenge for fear of being traced back to me. Shhhh! The pen was a Faber Castelle Loom - M.

The ink, Akkerman Parkpop Purper.
