What are the little lies we tell ourselves to justify a new pen?
Mine for example:
1. It would improve my handwriting and stave off dementia.
2. I would be inspired to write more.
3. I need to get a pen emblematic of the aesthetic I hold dear.
4. It's a pain to have to flush a pen thoroughly when I switch inks; easier to get a new pen. (maybe this isn't a lie)
