    Default New member from Colorado

    Hello, I just posted in another thread and realized I had not introduced myself. I am pretty new to fountain pens but have been reading a lot on forums and pen sites. I got a Waterman Phileas (spelling?) 5 or more years ago but didn't use it for a long time. About a year ago I flushed it out and began my new pen journey! Since then I've acquired a Lamy Safari, a Kaweco Classic Sport, a Plumix, Metropolitan and a couple of Esterbrooks. Today being my birthday, I received a TWSBI mini from my husband along with some Private Reserve ink. I enjoy all the great information and the nice folks on the forum!

    Hi Dragonfly,

    Sorry, I'm a bit late, but welcome to the Fountain Pen Geeks forums! Smaller than the largest pen fora, larger than some, you'll find a comfortable community of pen-centric people here, with a growing body of posts, reviews, and group knowledge. Mostly, you'll find people who are enthusiastic about fountain pens, and fountain pen people.

    Join in!








    Regards,
    Jon
