For the week including the 4th of July, I went with quotes from the founding fathers of the United States of America. I wasn’t trying to be political, but some of the ideas expressed in these quotes seem in contrast to our modern political climate. I am glad you are here, where I add extra comments. The images are posted on the PensLove Ink Instagram account as the week progresses.

The year was 2016. I had just driven over 6 hours to the Atlanta Pen Show. I went to the Nock Co table and suddenly the FOMO was strong. Yes, the Fear Of Missing Out. There was this little blue and red creation. Already, it was almost sold out. I wasn’t sure how useful it would be. I bought one of the last ones. I know FOMO was the main motivation.

I am not talking about people who are good writers, but pens that write well. My pens I consider good writers remain filled with ink. I keep them ready for a card, letter or note. Each one of these pens deserves a quick mention.

Ah, notebooks. They so often come in a three pack and all three look just alike. What to do, what to do?

A week of quotes for Father’s Day. I make no claim to how applicable they are to my father or me as a father. I just found them to be good quotes. >

I almost always carry a pocket pen. Slipped in my front right pocket, a pocket pen settles in deep and safe. I can quickly access it on demand. Currently, three pens, including two fountain pens, fill this role.

Once upon a time, a long, long time ago - about 2014 - I read about bullet journaling.
