Life Imitates Doodles has had problems with WordPress. Disappointing to see but no surprise given my experiences. For your amusement, an intrepid kitten battles a mechanical monster but does it win?
From the archives, my kit from five years ago. Only one pen has remained a constant in my rotation. Can you guess which one?
Pens: Platinum #3776, Noodler’s Standard Flex, the Pilot Prera Italic and the Sheaffer Taranis Medium. Inks: Diamine Sepia, Noodler’s Black Swan in Australian Roses, Noodler’s Black and Diamine Steel Blue. Autopoint Mechanical Pencil, a daily user that has never failed me.

The Shih Tzu, a lapdog, had chutzpah while the doxie, a ratter, was a wuss. Go figure.
