Hello everyone!

I hope you all had a wonderful Fountain Pen Day this past Friday November 3rd!  

Unfortunately I was unable to fully celebrate.  I was visiting Connecticut to escape to the cold weather and enjoy the Fall change of season.  The leaves were sorely missed!  However, I was able to make a quick visit to The Fountain Pen Hospital’s brick and mortar store located in New York, NY.  It was a lovely little place and I found a fancy dot grid notebook from Germany.  Apparently it was newly released!  I love how it reminds me of the 90’s with it’s hologram page edges and I’ve always wanted to try a dot grid system.  It was a wonderful time; a week spent in much needed cold weather surrounded by loved ones, fire pits and cider – of course!

This past week I’ve been blessed with delving back into a game of D&D, this time specifically the 5e version.  I’ve played several campaigns of Pathfinder over the years and greatly missed the experience as a whole.  Teaming up with my significant other, a good friend of ours and a few random folks at our local game store, we had our first successful run through.  

As is always the case with me, I’ve full invested myself in my character and have decided to find a way to tie in their relationship (family or otherwise) to my original creation.  The family of Mohan shall have a long lived legacy!  Thus far, there have been a total of 4 incarnations and two additionals are currently being flushed out.

And, of course, I will be utilizing my trusty fountain pens and my schfancy “invisible” black light reactive Noodler’s ink!  It’s a work in progress but I will modifying my original character’s journal with sigils and a spell/riddle.  I hope that this inspires others to take their character creation to the next level and also find creative ways to put those fountain pens to good use.

Be well and Long Live Paint! (and fountain pens)
