Not keyboard related.. I got really into fountain pens and journaling :) Got my first pen, a Rhodia journal, and some Iroshizuki ink! Not pictured is the other pen, 4 bottles of ink, journal, leather journal cover, and fancy stationery I got to write letters on... yet another sickness-.. I mean hobby!
Also got a couple of pounds of coffee beans from Wild Goose Coffee Roasters. If you love high quality coffee, you HAVE to try Wild Goose. I think they're my favorite roaster so far, and I've tried quite a lot of them :)
Oh, and a big giant 7 pound sketchbook, new Prismacolor pencils, graphite pencils, graphic pens.... Still waiting on my Hot Keys Project keys, my Mimic cables.... a fun mail week in this house :)
How do you like the Iroshizuku ink? I bought the Kon-peki when that line first released and found it too watery. Haven't used it in years, but I'm willing to try the black. I have to try all black and black-blue inks.
I love it so far! I've written a bit in my Rhodia webnotebook, and the ink and pen are great on the Clairefontaine paper. No smearing, no feathering, feels very very smooth. I also got a bottle of Tsutsuji but haven't used it yet. Waiting on some Diamine bottles to get here. That Kon-peki has been on my wish list, actually, it's such a perfectly beautiful blue.
The main reason I went with Iroshizuku.... is because of how nice the bottles look haha ;)
Now I just want to get my hands on some of the J. Herbin Anniversary inks....I NEED Emerald of Chivor in my life. It's just so gorgeous.
I've been so desperate to use my new pens and inks, that I legit asked on Facebook if anyone wanted a Penpal, or just some handwritten letters haha. I also joined the penpals sub-reddit too. I just want to write :)
