I find that most people in my life have at least one “thing” they are collecting. It is often an insight into their personality and it is fun to hear people talk about something they are passionate about.

    Fountain pens and inks. Nothing like enjoying the mere act of writing meeting notes with my preferred pen, ink, and paper.

    A5 Clairefontaine 90gsm, and usually Pilot Iroshizuku Tsutsiji.

    It is the perfect color to be appropriate for signatures and the like, while also being interesting and having the tiniest bit of sheen.

    Haven’t used a Bic in ages, I just fill pens as needed.

    Got a safari in F that’s perfect for tsutsiji and I just keep filling it.

    Yeah, FP are my “thing”, helped along by the insane vari lets of available inks. If I sign something [wet], it’s with a fifteen dollar safari and that ink, or on (diamine) Sherwood green.

    Anything else, and it’s not my sig.
