For the first time I've started writing stuff on paper before typing on the 'puter

countzero [Edit] [Delete] 20:18, 2 October '09

I've always been a straight to screen guy since typewritten essays became mandatory.

I prided myself in exploiting the power of word processing and loved the whole electronic process where you could start with a couple of words or bullet points and then an entire documents sprouts from it.

I pitied the luddite draft-on-paper-first types for completely missing the point of a computer as an editing/idea generating tool.

However this week I have realised I cannot use the computer anymore like I used to. The screen’s to bright for my eyes and I just find myself staring at an empty screen or a mocking, talking fucking paper clip.

I’ve started to write on paper…my handwriting is atrocious after years of relegation to drawing lemmings on desks. But I’m loving the whole experience and I think it deserves a flash fountain pen to further enhance the experience.

So my question…

Recommendations for a reeeeet special pen?
