Hello all...
I am new to both wet shaving and writing with fountain pens...both are proving to be addicting :) I've long wanted to become a habitual journal keeper, and have been working towards that for a week or so. I found myself falling behind on documenting my work (called "keeping a field diary"), and decided that involving my appreciation for a quality tool being used for the task it was intended for might help me stay motivated to keeping better records. So after browsing some old threads here, I picked up a few Piccadilly notebooks/journals from Barnes and Noble, and ordered a Pilot Metropolitan. I've also been working on my penmanship, copying what I can find on Getty-Dubay style italic cursive. Ordered their "Write Now" book today, looking forward to working through it.
Thought I would throw up a couple of pictures of my first entry in my journal with the metro, in hopes it will inspire someone who is on the fence to take the plunge. I'm satisfied I did.
