Hi from Northern Minnesota
Hi everyone, dcpritch here from Northern Minnesota.
I'm not new to fountain pens, having used them for more than twenty years. I have developed an unusual attraction to pens with stub nibs, meaning that if I see one for sale rarely can I resist a purchase. The same thing applies to really great flex nibbed pens, though I can sometimes resist those. As a result I have far too many pens, but I love writing with each and every one of them. I generally have 8 to 12 pens inked at any one time. Which reminds me, I love ink, too! And paper!
I usually hang out at FPN and occasionally on Pentrace, but this is such a great place with "cool" fountain pen geeks I thought I'd join this forum. I have lots of fountain pen friends here and look forward to chatting with everyone and keeping current.
Best, DAVID

Welcome David. With all the FPN people coming over I thought I'd give FPN another try. I found it overwhelming the first time I went months ago and still found it that way though I recognized more familiar names. I just like the cosy space here at FP Geeks.

Welcome! I know what you mean about being able to resist purchases....it's like the cult of the pen gods has brainwashed me and I have a hard time saying no to a new purchase.

Hi Everyone and thanks for the warm welcome. I was at our cabin on Saturday with very poor reception (which normally is a big plus when you want to get away), so I couldn't tune in to the podcast. Hope to hang out here some more and learn a few things from you guys.
Cheers, DAVID
