This video is a super laid-back, impromptu check-in where I chat through what’s been in constant rotation on my desk lately—my current fountain pen + ink favorites, plus a few flops that just didn’t work for me the way I hoped. It’s less of a formal review and more of a cozy “here’s what I’ve actually been reaching for” kind of update, with the real-life context of journaling, planning, and just enjoying analog time. I also share a handful of stationery things I’m genuinely obsessed with right now—those little supporting pieces that make the whole setup feel easy and inviting. If you’re trying to figure out what kinds of pen/ink pairings are worth trying (and which ones might not be your vibe), this is meant to feel like a friend-to-friend catch-up. I also point you to where I keep my ongoing favorites collected, like my Amazon Shop, and I mention BALEEN—truly my favorite jewelry shop—because it’s Seattle-based, sustainable, and I love supporting them.
