< Handwriting just might be the write pace for me

Another fountain pen hobbyist here! Fountain pens are distinguished from pens you dip in ink ("dip pens", simply enough) specifically by their internal reservoir of ink. It's more convenient, but there really is something to be said about the joy of being able to switch inks as soon as your nib goes dry rather than having to wait for the whole reservoir to deplete.

This is making me want to write. I have a nice journal of Tomoe River paper that is going awfully neglected in my backpack...

I amazed at the tenacity of my mind to cling to habit and/or assumptions.

In the first couple readings, the word 'River' had me autonomically convinced that "I have a nice journal of Tomoe River paper" was intended to be more like "I have a nice journal of THE Tomoe River ON paper"... but a couple days later I decided to look up the "Tomoe River" to see where it is :-) and of course wound up learning more - and other - than what initial assumptions would allow.

Anyway... did it ever make it out of the backpack?
