    Default Hello from Maine

    Hello everyone, new member here, I’ve been using fountain pens for a little over a year now.
    Got interested in them in an effort to improve my handwriting, which to be honest was pretty poor.
    After a few months, my writing is much better, to the point I am frequently complemented on it, and I have begun looking for excuses to hand write anything I can.
    My preferred pens are my TWSBI’s generally, as well as a Namisu Orion with a Goulet stub nib.
    I’m also a big fan of high quality mechanical pencils, and use my Rotring 800 .7mm almost as much as my fountain pens.
    Looking forward to getting to know everyone here, and discussing various pen related topics.

    Was saying it was nice to see some other Maine folks on here, I’m not from Orono, just a bit downriver in Bangor/Brewer though.
