People can be so funny about the pens they use. Myself included. I have my buried-at-the-bottom-of-my-purse pens for signing receipts and writing the once-in-a-blue-moon check. I have my easy-to-access office stash should someone come to a meeting unprepared. But when it comes to the pens I use constantly, it has to be black ink, have some weight to it, and write smoothly. None of that jerky stuff where you actually have to work to get the pen across the paper. Sa-moooth...
It might be all in my head, but having a good pen to write with actually makes my handwriting look better. Or maybe it just makes me want to write neater. That might actually be more the truth. Regardless, having a pen you like and like to use makes writing -- thank you notes specifically -- easier.
And the nice thing is it doesn't have to be a $25 pen from the snooty paper store. The Bug Designs pen is actually one of my favorites to write with and it cost me less than $1 each. Don't have a Bug Designs pen yet? Post a comment or send me an email and I'll send you one. They're darn snappy, that's for sure!
