Small tweaks can have outsized impacts. It’s a law of nature in school policy. It also applies to stationery. Two small tweaks this week to keep this week’s writing fun.

I inked this week’s septet with my local pen group’s meetup in mind. The intention is to have a spectrum of nib grinds, pen materials, and inks to share. So folks can experiment with new-to-them combinations of pen and nib and ink.

I get another week at home to work on projects that I find personally valuable. Reading and recording commonplace notes: yep. Journaling my way through the ongoing history-making government hearings: yes. Researching water parameters and a list of plants for a new freshwater fishtank: you betcha.

Both last week’s color palette and pen selection worked well. This week, I’m swapping only one pen-and-ink combo. Replacing a bright blue EF accent notetaker for a purple-pink version of the same. Gearing up for some commonplace notes.
