calligg calig colligg posh writing

I’ve always enjoyed writing with a fountain pen.  Even in work where I used one every day to make notes or jot stuff down in meetings.  I always had (usually brown) ink on my hands!

Then the other day while bored and looking for something to do, I found some old calligraphy pens.  They were all blocked up and not working so I set about cleaning and re-inking them.

And now I’m hooked.  I love setting aside time to practice my art.

As well as fountain pens (I’ve got about 20) I also collect inks.  I’ve got 15 to choose from right across the colour spectrum.  But I keep coming back to my old favourite: brown.  I think it really suits the gothic style I’m tryinghard to perfect.

Anyway, if confirmation of my status as the World’s Most Boring Man were ever needed, here it is!
