    I’m a total pen and stationery fanatic, too. I love writing with fountain pens loaded up with beautiful ink! There are certain inks that make me WANT to write. For example, if you get the chance to try Private Reserve’s Ebony Purple, you might DIE in an ink geek glory!!!

    I’m going to Paris on Wednesday and I’ve already lined up all the pen shops I’m planning to visit. Forget about the food and wine, I’m going for the ink!!!

    @Coe, Coe, I knew from the minute I met you we were destined to be bonded for life.
    Do you know about the Fountain Pen Network forums? Not that you need an excuse to spend more time away from your precious paper…

    I *love* this stuff–so much more fun and interesting than writing…

    @Robert, Ain’t that the truth. I seem to remember you with a fancy folio, ribbon book mark, fountain pen…

    I share your obsession. Thanks for the links. Not that I need one more pen or one more notebook or. . .
