  1. Trying out a little paper I wasn't familiar with: Maruman Mnemosyne.

    The quote: “When all else fails, write what your heart tells you. You can’t depend on your eyes, when your imagination is out of focus.” Mark Twain

    Pen: Asvine V126, Steel Nib
    Ink: Diamine Writer's Blood
    Paper: Maruman Mnemosyne

    The paper did really well: no spidering, no bleed through. Of course, Writer's Blood isn't the wettest of inks. I'll try another pen / ink combo to see how well this paper fares.

  6. Haven't shared any progress with my lately so here's a random page I filled today with my Pilot Metropolitan

  7. If you want to teach cursive, fine. Come up with better reasoning than this to devote some of our limited educational resources to it. For example, there are studies that suggest handwriting notes leads to better memory retention than typing on a computer. Are cursive writers better at taking handwritten notes?

    As for me, I love writing notes on paper, and I find it to be a very helpful memory aide, but I don't use cursive.

  12. I overheard a woman ranting that it is bad that they are not teaching cursive in school. Her reasoning?

    "If they can't write cursive, then they can't read cursive. If they can't read cursive, then they can't read The Constitution?"

    This is 100% nonsense reasoning. I learned to write in cursive ~40 years ago. I've read the Constitution at least 4 times, but never by reading an image of the document - I only read it in print in a book or a website.

  17. Stopped to run an errand at Staples and also bought 3 new pens.

    I have hundreds of pens. Everywhere.

    But writing in cursive in my journal (s) is a lifelong favorite activity of mine and a huge part of my life.

    So, pens. Journals and pens. Right up there with chocolate and silence for therapeutic purposes 🥰.

    Cleaned and refilled a couple of my pens today. Some have dried up by sitting unused for about 5 months. Others just need a bit of coaxing. I have to decide on fewer pens to keep filled up.
