My name is Jeremy. I discovered fpgeeks from Doc Brown videos.I have been using fountain pens on and off from high school. I am currently living around Killeen Texas. I spent 10 years serving my country in the Army and have a B.S from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as well as a culinary arts degree from Le Cordon Bleu in Austin Texas. I became really serious about fountain pens in 2008 but stupidly sold them off in 2010. I aquirred a Montblanc Jules Verne about a week ago, and it restored my passion. I have a Pelikan m805 with ib nib being delivered today, and i am quite looking forward to it. My favorite inks thus far has to be the Pilot Iroshizuku, and my favorite paper is Rhodia. I have been a member of fpn since 2009 and i am looking forward to my time here.

Welcome to the madness. Indulge. Sure seems like Texas must be the center of fountain pen use in the US.
