    Default Hello from Pennsylvania

    I actually just became the new owner of a small collection of fountain pens. It was by accident though. Someone had advertised a small lot of pens for free, so I emailed them. There are quite a few Watermans and a Park Sonnet. I have been writing with the Park and it is very nice.

    Hello and welcome to FPGeeks.

    Watermans and a Parker Sonnet for free. That can't be bad. Well done you.

    Welcome from a former Pennsylvanian! I used to enjoy visiting State College. My favorite thing was the used book stores there: back then my fountain pen use was limited to one or two pens. There are lots of ways to get into fountain pens, and the Parker Sonnet is a good one!
