In order to encourage myself to do more writing by hand, I bought a lovely fountain pen with the prize money from winning the LWS One Great Paragraph prize!

And congratulations on the LWS prize! I meant to say that first!

What a lovely purchase, Emma! A fountain pen to encourage. There is something in the feel of handwriting that is so different from the keys. I also find that my mind works quite differently when handwriting, which is fascinating. Enjoy the pen!

Thank you for this! It is gorgeous, and you write it, and therefore you are writing plenty. I love this in more ways than I can push into the shapes of words right now.

Thank you, Melinda. I love this phrase "push into the shapes of words." Such a joy to share and receive with you!
