My fountain pen usage was down even more this week as I missed doing journal entries a couple of days. So no pens went dry and I haven’t ink up any new pens. I could have used the same picture again but I’m tired of it and I didn’t have time to take another one. So no photo today.

The 2017 Philly pen show is history. The next US show is on the other coast, in Los Angeles, from February 16th to 19th.
