    Wink You people are horrible. Just horrible!

    About a month ago, I just lost The Will To Ink. I don't really know why. But I once this sunk in, I looked at all my ink bottles, realized I have so much I will never, ever use it all. Never.

    So I said, 'No more ink. There. That oughta do it.'

    Then someone wrote to me using Sailor Kobe Brick Brown Red. Or Brick Red Brown. I know Brick and Red were somehow involved. Oh...the shading...before I knew it, a bottle was on its way.

    And then, in quick succession, Sailor Oku-Yama....more shading...limited edition...getting dizzy by now...then I HAD to look at someone's review of Stipula Musk Green...shading! Oooo....maybe this is the replacement for my beloved Pelikan Khaki....it's all a blur.

    Such horrible, horrible people.
    My other pen is a Montblanc.

    And my other blog is a tumblr!


    And my latest ebook, for spooky wintery reading:

    Sailor, many thanks for the praise. You are most welcome.

    I feel the same way about books. People keep writing books I might like to read. How the heck and I supposed to keep up? I won't live long enough to read everything I want to read.

    I can but try. The same thing goes for inks.

    LOL, most of us feel your pain! Last weekend I fussed that my glass shelf was just crammed with bottles, surely too many, and my husband pipes up he has an extra glass shelf I could add. Whaaaaaaaat? So he quietly handed it to me and walked away. I installed, redistributed, and geez, I hardly have any ink at all! Look at all this space. I need to order some, or at least plan to get more in DC. I never thought HE would be an enabler. . . :-)

    I know the original post was somewhat tongue-in-cheek, but I have found samples do a good job allowing me to try an ink without actually adding to my collection.
