What do you write with your pens?
So we all love pens for the pieces of art they are, but they're also tools. So, what do you write with your pens? Do you journal, do you take notes? Do you use fountain pens for everything or just certain activities?
Personally, I write a lot of snail mail letters to friends, and I also use mine to take notes. I've never done a journal before, but I'm thinking it may be useful in helping me unpack some things. Plus, Midori makes some very nice looking 3 and 5 year journals.

I mostly use my fountain pens for my Hobonichi planner, snail mail penpalling, and a little journaling now and then. I also prefer them for general use like making quick notes, but in that case I’ll write on and with whatever I can grab before the thought escapes.
Do you use any particular site to meet penpals? I've been thinking about it, maybe getting a PO box to make it more private - but I see a lot of stories of flaky pen pals that don't write back.
Ive used /r/penpals before with good results, as well as swapbot. Would highly recommend a po box.
Hmm, interesting idea. Could this be a good community to start?
