Proceeds to write blog post about their interest in fountain pens that started last fall.

Okay, fair, was really saying that before last fall I'd never had interest in fountain pens… And I've been here some 50+ traversals around the sun by our planet…

For me, it forces me to slow down my writing and make the letters right.

That's where I started, but not (completely) where I stayed. I find that writing with a fountain pen makes me more intentional because I need to be able to read what I've written. But instead of just focusing on penmanship I moved to journaling instead.
