This morning I took four pens to work:

 

1. Parker Duofold Centennial Pearl & Black, medium nib, Private Reserve Lake Placid Blue;

2. Parker Duofold Centennial True Blue, medium/broad nib, Waterman South Sea Blue;

3. Parker Duofold International Amber Check, medium nib, Waterman Havana Brown; and

4. Montblanc Meisterstueck 149, broad nib, Noodler's Forest Green.

 

I'll probably take the same quartet tomorrow...

Today consists of a lot of sitting-at-my-desk-at-home-style writing.

 

As such, the only pen I'm using today is my new dip pen. I don't have to go anywhere away from my desk for writing today, so using something else isn't really necessary. Also, it's fun.

Very old Pelikan 200 with a B nib and black Omas ink.

I guess I'm feeling nostalgic, it was my first FP

I am trying a broad at work. I like broad nibs but when you have to take frequent notes in small moleskines I thought it was not suitable. I was wrong. I'm doing really good with my black Pel ol'style M600. Only thing is that it's so wet the ink is literally running down!
