Quotes for today’s video: Day 25: I became a poet without thought without intent. Just a simple, giving way to the inevitable….[of my soul’s truths]~ Alix Klingenberg, Like Falling Day 26: Yesterday upon the stair, I met a man who wasn't there. He was there again today. I wish, I wish he'd go away ~ Hughes Mearns, Antigonish Day 27: Today, find some time to dwell in soul-invoking, heart-expanding, energy-shifting MAGIC. Mmmmh! ~ Helen Rebello
Hi again, Grace! That passage you read, about Divine Static - powerful! Some people are so blessed with an ability to paint vivid pictures with words and that one was just *chef's kiss*
Kristi, when I read it as I was looking for passages to write I had to pause afterwards to take the words in and knew almost immediately I was gonna use it. So, so good. Glad it resonated with you as well.
Just had a thought for all your tiny bits of leftover samples - create an abstract art piece using drops and the plastic wrap swatch method on a big piece of maybe smooth watercolor paper? - and then you could write some poetry lines randomly - anyway … love giving other people projects to do 😘
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha! But apparently you come up with such good projects tho! I had thought about using the leftover samples in 2 ways 1) mix a few together for experimentation for dip pen transcribing and 2) create a pieces of artwork. Hadn't yet put the "write lines of poetry" to that thought. Now I have. ✓ The baggie idea was a given. I love the random nature of what you get thru that process sooo, so much! Thank you, thank you Susan!
I don't post pens so I don't have to worry about the clip ;-D Paper is really so important and I don't think we spend enough time on it. I feel you on the vanishing point. I cannot, its just wrong.
The shorter, pocket pens I tend to post cause for my hands they're almost too small to write with properly. Ikr! I'm still in the "will I...or won't I?" camp on getting a regular VP pen. It's like Sailor for me right now....I'm thinking that 1 might be enough for my collection and I'm good with that.
@@wildlyimaginableare you showing restraint !?!? Lol. No but srsly why have it if its not making you happy? It takes time to decide if it works or not.
Thanks Ron! Can't write for long with it. After I finished writing the quote and journaling my hand was spent for a few hours. Not hurting, just extremely tired. Sadly, did not write with the pen for rest of the day like I've done with each pen so far. So many lessons I'm taking away from this series. Whoa. Thanks for watching! 😊
I was saying to myself as the video started, “ I love the way she does blind choices!” And then you didn’t??? Hahaha Still love your videos and love your collections!
Yeh...I know, switcharoo on you. Truth be told, for 3 consecutive days (😫) I kept pulling blue, put it back and chose again, so decided in the moment on the 4th day with only 6 days left, I'm just gonna choose the colour myself 😆. I must say tho, the blind choice aspect of this, my 1st 30inks30days tag series, was so much fun to do. Glad you're still enjoying it. 🥰
You’re not crazy about the clip needing to line up properly. If I don’t get mine lined up, especially on my Kaweco Brass it becomes very out of balance and uncomfortable to write with for very long.

Love my Jinhao mini!
I don't know how I missed those when I ordered my original 82 but I now have a few minis in my stash.

@@blktauna Totally agree. There are moments tho when my brain says I "need" it. 🙄 That's when I swat it back into order and banish the thought 🤣
Great inks, great quotes, Jinhao mini, sorry, not a fan too small. Kudus to you still pulling off beautiful penmanship with such a small pen.

Glad it's not just me, altho I was chalking it up to me just being my weird, quirky self 🤪
I have 5 jinhao 82 minis i think. I won't count my Jinhao 82s. I think i have every single color. 😅
Jinhao 82-ers UNITE! Way cool. They such good little pens.
