Did you know we now have drawing pens? They are pigmented, lightfast and waterproof. Perfect for art work, sketching on the go or even as a great everyday pen that won’t bleed in your Moleskine diary. Thank you @lisaternent_art for the pic of one of the drawing pens in action :)

Mango may not be a citrus but this fruity pair is fabulous!! Love Platinum Citrus Black in the new Lamy Safari Candy Special Edition. The Mango Safari is such a happy colour. It just stands out. And Citrus Black is... moody? Interesting? Certainly not boring! What are you writing with on this wonderful Wednesday :)

It’s no secret that I (Jamie) am a big fan of Iron Gall inks. I love them all from the beautiful Platinum Classic inks to the KWZ IG inks that come in such wonderful colours to the tried and tested Diamine Registrars Ink and Rohrer and Klingner Salix. There is something special about them. From the way they oxidize over time to the way the ink sits on the page. I find as I come back to pages written with them, I so enjoy the ink and the way it looks seemingly at perfect harmony with the page. Yes they require a bit of extra maintenance and sometimes write a bit drier, but I think that adds to the fun and the experience of them. Now when new Iron Gall inks arrive on the scene I have to try them! TWSBI Blue Black is the latest Iron Gall ink to arrive at the shop. In short review - It’s incredible. The colour is something you expect from a tradition IG Blue Black so nothing special there but the real gripping thing about this ink is how it performs. It’s smooth, dries nice and fast and works excellently on cheaper paper. It has made it straight into one of my daily writers. And in my growing collection of IG inks it heads straight into the top 5 maybe even quite a bit higher ;)
