Links And A Bit Of Green

This photo turned up unexpectedly and reminded me how much I like green ink. Perhaps you enjoy it, too.

• Crónicas Estilográficas: The Father, the Son, and the Anonymous Ghost
• Fountain Pen Pharmacist: Ink Review #287: Diamine Shimmertastic Caramel Sparkle
• Wonder Pens: An Overview of Hobonichi Planners
• The Pelikan’s Perch: Before It Was Cool To Be Clear: The Origin Of Pelikan’s Demonstrators (It took me years to grow fond of demonstrators but now they fascinate me.)
• Pen and Paper Geek: TWSBI Reviews – 580 Diamond and ECO (I prefer the 580 to the ECO due to its solid build and smooth nib.)

Why green? No idea really, but it is a cheerful photo from the archives.

Sunday Reads: Fountain Pens, Green Ink And Puppies

For notes and private writing, I tend to favor aqua and green inks although Stipula Verde Muschiato is neither but still a favorite. Mountain of Ink has an excellent green ink comparison page that includes most of my favorites. The colors are displayed beautifully and revealed how dissimilar are the inks in my green rotation. That variety keeps green fresh and lively for my daily use. How do you maintain your interest in ink?

And then there were puppies. Lots and lots of puppies…

• Fountain pens in middle of a renaissance
• 22 Words: Here Is The Most Popular Book From the Year You Were Born
• This new Chrome extension lets you adjust the dial on the toxicity of comments
