If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it
Last week’s palette lives on — mostly. The collection of pens, nibs, and inks is already well-balanced. Why try to fix what isn’t broken.
I do, however, need a new daily driver. And I inked a new wild card — for the fun of it.

Life as a nib-size nomad
Writing with a balance of broad and narrow nib sizes this week has been instructive. I recognize that I have become a nib-size nomad. I happily jump from EF to M to Zooms and B nibs.
My line-width preferences have ebbed and flowed both over time and depending on the kind of writing I intend to get into.

Finding happiness in old ink loves
All three new inks are long-time favorites. Old loves. Classics within the mnmlscholar collection. Heck, Aonibi is my all-time favorite blue ink. Joy is the point, after all.

A community with heart
A little heart brings people of all kinds together. One of my favorite parts of our stationery community is that folks are eager to help one another. From warm welcomes, to moral support, to shameless pen-enabling.
