In this video, I show you the 8 fountain pens and inks I will be writing with in March 2024. At the end I talk about the notebook (for long journaling) that I picked and also about Toby's surgery and recovery. He's doing great ! Please note: this video ends abruptly and oddly because I got an important call related to my Mom's health care coverage. This is the result of my phone being my "everything" for videos and for phone calls. I'm so deep in the cat recovery and care as well that I'm unable to re-do the video and I do apologize. LOL it's probably for the best that I got cut off because I would only have "complained" about paperwork. :) It seemed like poetic justice or Divine intervention that I got cut off at the end.
Things are going pretty well but have been intense in the cat care and the health paperwork/red tape departments.
Here is a list of the fountain pens and inks I showed:
1. Pelikan M800 F Black and Blue F nib - TWSBI Blue/Black (pen gifted by pen friend M.S.)
2. Hongdian Forest Rainbow Fude nib - Birmingham Violet Sea Snail (ink sample gifted by pen friend C.S.)
3. Jinhao X750 Shimmering Sands B JoWo nib - Vanness Hissy Fit
4. Lamy Safari Dark Lilac - 1.1 nib - Diamine Pansy (my favorite alternative for Lamy Dark Lilac 2016
5. Lamy Vista B nib - Sailor 50 States Vermont
6. Lamy Al-Star Bronze B nib - Birmingham Sugar Kelp (ink sample gifted by pen friend C.S. + pen gifted by anonymous viewer/pen friend)
7. TWSBI Eco Jade B nib - Diamine Sherwood Green
8. TWSBI Eco Cerulean Blue B nib - TWSBI Sky Blue
I'm excited about these pens and inks!
