My Friends Today
pen teeming with words
mws
brings forth this simple haiku
my friends for todayIt is another cold and overcast day. The wind has picked up which adds to the cold. I have no desire to be outside but want to stay curled up in my chair, wrapped in my blanket, reading and journaling with my companions. My FPOTD Fountain Pen of the Day is a Brown-marbled Pelikan M200 filled with Pelikan Smoky Quartz ink (and words). Life is good! Stay warm!

serene and calm within
listening for wordsBlue skies, sunshine, cold and windy. Pretty much sums up the day so far. It’s a grab a book, make a homemade chai latte, wrap myself in a warm blanket in my recliner and possibly take a nap kinda day.

blank pages fill with words
new fountain penCloudy and overcast skies with possible snow flurries later today. May be one of those days for a hot chocolate or tea and a good book. Or, writing with a new fountain pen.

A Gift Card Spent
With a gift card given to me for Christmas I purchased another fountain pen, a Brown Marbled Pelikan M200 with a fine nib. They are a well respected fountain pen company, founded in Germany in 1832. I have always been attracted to their style and shape but never purchased one since their pricing starts in the low $100 range which is beyond my limits. So far I’m quite pleased and expecting to have my first novel finished by the end of the week. 🙂 I’ll keep you posted.
