As a 74 year old, with a bunch of health issues, requiring a lot of medication, I'm really appreciative of these ideas. I've done some over the years, but I'm realizing that I should do more if I want to remember things.

You have inspired me to dig out my old fountain pens, clean them, ink them up and start journaling. I've also gone on a purchasing blitz and am looking forward to my new pens and ink. I didn't really know much about fountain pens when I was using them years ago, but you have changed that, and I thank you. Your videos on mindfulness really hit a note with me. Keep doing the great job you are doing!

Oh, also, one thing I especially love about your channel is the regular inclusion of verbal "Easter eggs" - archaic quotations, song lyrics, movie dialogue references.... awesome!!! Even your writing samples often contain little things worth noticing! Thanks for this great channel!!

I, for one, would love you to do a Bordeaux ink search video.

Personally, I am prolific at journaling, but a couple of good ways to use your pens if you don’t journal is to write reviews of the movies you watch or the books you read.

Loving this channel, I can’t wait to get up on a Wednesday morning to a new “live” chat… 👍🏻

I would love to watch ink videos. I’m always on the hunt for new ink.

Can I see your entire collections together for inspiration.

I had a chance to catch up a little this morning, and really enjoyed the video. I miss everyone! Not sure how long my current scheduling will last. Until that situation sorts out, I'll likely have trouble catching the live show or the videos. Wishing everyone good health and joy with their pens! Anna

The Juicy Broads did a show with Hooligan Georgia. He made them a matching set of pens. Very interesting!

What I do is fill my pens about a fourth of the way with ink. Thus, the pen runs dry in a few days then I go to the next.
This way I get to rotate my pens. If I really enjoy a pen, I may fill it up for a longer visit.
