I tested a few currently inked pens on Yamamoto’s new Canopus paper and I really love it. The colors render really well and the fingerprint problems of Cosmo Air Light are MUCH reduced. #fountainpens @penaddict
First photo shows Canopus paper and under it the same inks on a Cosmo Air Light notebook, photo taken in indirect sunlight. Second photo is a page where I tried to make oily fingerprints on the page before writing, and wrote with my writing hand resting on the paper.

@bougiewonderland with coffee or tea? 💯😂

@penaddict podcast-inspired photo today(not a #fountainpen but still addictive) #uniballone #uniball #penaddict

@jezlyn @paradoxmo all the twsbis… #fountainpens

@paradoxmo @jezlyn omg those ecos were mind-altering

I made another Trader Joe’s box book! This one is made with Takasago Premium Bank Paper from Yamamoto Paper (another favorite for my #FountainPens ) and lies flat even though it’s a modified case bound format. #diy #handbookbinding #traderjoes #upcycle

I’m getting addicted to making these little Coptic-stitched journals out of Trader Joe’s snack boxes and fancy Japanese paper. These two are both made with Light Force paper from Yamamoto paper and they are SO nice for my #fountainpens and #fountainpen inks.

Further update: the replacement 5-year Hobonichi arrived this week but I have not yet tested it. Very happy that I’ll be able to start using it on January 1!

Update: I got an email from Hobonichi asking me to provide my address, via a form, to receive a replacement 5-year book to be shipped later this year (I think) or possibly in January, at which point I will have to send back my defective book (as I understand it, they will pay postage). Will update again after the replacement arrives. Hopeful!

@andysp it started as a purchased paper in a pack… I want to say the brand was Tim Holz, maybe? but I also altered it a bunch before it got to this state.

🎶 These are a few of my favorite things… What’s on your desk?

Inside my new #handmade junk journal. Signatures are removable, traveler’s journal style, for art-ing and journaling. Some papers are #fountainpen friendly, of course.

Sometimes we do #fountainpen ink art and write out song lyrics. I used a fude nib Glassophy glass dip pen and a water brush for the artwork

@penaddict our DnD-playing household is very much looking forward to cracking open Baldur’s Gate this holiday season. MAYBE today if I can convince my husband to open a Christmas gift early
