Introductory Post.
Fountain pens, does it intrigue you? I was intrigued. I was so intrigued that I dove into the rabbit hole and have never ever been able to make it out. It is a fascinating journey. And as I type this, I am still waiting for another pen to arrive. Pilots, Platinum, Sailor, HongDians, JinHaos and of course MontBlanc. Names that out to be familiar with the seasoned fountain pen collectors. But this is an inclusive hobby. a hobby that is as inclusive as well as affordable. I started my journey, more seriously, in October 2022. That was when I started pen-palling. Through pen-palling I rediscovered my love for writing, for composition, and also for the love of the written words. The romanticism of unscrewing a pen, placing the nib on paper and letting the magic flow as you create meaning using ink and paper, rocks. Friends call me Slim. I am 51 this year (2023). This is my Blog on fountain pens and other things related.
