The nafety for safety: Three new no nonsense pens and inks for my currently inked
Two of last week’s pen-and-ink pairings did not work well for the kinds of writing I do during the school year. So, I’m playing it safe this week. With inks and pens I’ve come to trust to write unfailingly well.
A day late and a couple dollars short
My partner and I received an order from Yoseka Stationery last weekend. An inky, penguin-infused order. And I’m too excited not to share. Even mid-bullet journal series. So, allow me to share what has me so excited of late.
Bridges made of stationery, a mnml digest
Five links. Ten sentences or fewer. On connecting through stationery. Building bridges between people.
It’s been my experience that stationery brings people together. Across hobbies, interests, and — excitingly — even across time.
A change-up, swap-up, freshen-up
A sparkling, shiny new sextet for the week. My students return to campus this week. A fresh set greets them.
Four new pen-and-ink combinations enter rotation this week. The KACO, Narwhal, Kaweco and Pilot all sport round, unground nibs. The first days of a school year a whirlwinds of activity. Quick jottings abound. And desk surfaces are not always available while writing. Round nibs are forgiving, even at odd angles.
