I write everything with a fountain pen in school from 8-18, and a bit in college. I enjoyed them and ended up with a couple of nice ones when my parents realized that I both enjoyed them and had to write essay after essay so having a good pen was worth it.

But since leaving school I seldom write anything on paper. The occasional address on an envelope or signing forms for the kids for school is about it. Not enough to keep the ink flowing in a fountain pen.

Where are people here writing so much that a fountain pen is useful? Genuine question, I’d enjoy writing again, I just don’t really need to enough to make it worthwhile. Every once in a while I’ll refill a pen and then they dry out and crust up.
