Good idea that quiz - or I think so. I'm not sure I need another pen forum in my life, but I'll give it a go.
I'm from the middle of the United States (continental). I'm a husband, father, grand father, second career pastor, student (Seminary), obsessed accumulator of fp's for the last nine years - an avid user of fp's for the last 15 years or so.
I primarily accumulate vintage pens but have a fair number of modern pens in the stash. I do most of my own repairs and have been doing that for nine years - a strong correlation to the obsessed accumulator phase (ebay) and learning to repair my own pens.
I prefer pens with a filling system other than c/c but it's not a deal breaker. I carry fp's every day and use them 99.99% of the time.
My ink preferences are Black, Blue, Blue Black and a few others - but having said that, I sure have a lot of bottles of ink, h'mmmm
I hang around on Fountain Pen Network quite a bit - also Pentrace and Zoss a little. I started on acp-p nine years ago and enjoyed the conversations with the likes of Hal Arnold and Frank Dubiel. I miss those guys.
Enough for now.
