In this very personal video, I share my story of healing through fountain pens and journaling, and I dedicate it in memory of our daughter, Alexandra Coco. I also include a clear content note up front because I do talk about addiction—this is part of my story, and part of why putting pen to paper has mattered so much to me. Fountain pens became more than “pretty tools.” They became a way for me to process grief, to slow down, and to give my feelings somewhere safe to land. I show some deeply meaningful pieces from my collection—pens that connect to Alexandra and to our family, including several elephant-themed pens and my Rickshaw bags in the Coco Elephants design. I walk through the pens, the nibs, and the inks I chose (including shimmer, shading, and bold colors), then I do a writing sample so you can see how they actually perform on paper. My takeaway is simple: journaling doesn’t have to be perfect to be powerful. Sometimes the right pen, the right ink, and a few honest lines are enough to help you keep going.
