An older piece (2011), new to me. Apologies if it's been posted before.

It may be an older piece but I thank you for including it as it was new to me & I appreciated reading it.

It's a lovely piece - grasps, as few articles do, the essence of what we do when we write with a fountain pen.
But I couldn't help smiling when I saw the journalist's day job: obituaries editor :-)

Indeed. :)

Thank you, catbert. Great article! I keep a small collection of these on the demise (and resurrection) of cursive writing.
