I was caught shoplifting once, not candy or pop, a mechanical pencil. Now I am an expert of the highest order in retail pens, I recognize the one pictured, yes it comes in a .5 and also can be matched with a ,7 or ,5 mechanical pencil of the same color. Me, I take pens apart and customize the cartridge to the pen, I too am a Frankenstein. I also enjoy narrow ruled paper…Im just sayin

I am a contractor and it shocks my clients how nice of a pen I have, and purple is beautiful. Phwew that felt good confessing that,,,,I have assembled some beautiful combinations that fit the moment and write exsquisitely. I literally guide people at the local staples, office max and depot. So we do exist, but it is a fun fetish,my only one..hehe

My predilection began in middle school when they came out with those groovy gel pens. I had sparkly pens, neon pens, metallic pens, and pens that wrote in different colors depending on the tilt and pressure on the ball point.

My favorite pen is purple and has a bright pink plume of feathers. I don’t write with this one–it’s just to look at! :-)

Even for a bookish society like Singapore, my penchant for post-its (3M), pens (Pilot), markers (Mr Sketch) and all things stationery is somewhat of an oddity. Someone, set up a support group please!

My preference from Dixon Ticonderogas evolved to Staedtler drafting pencils which eventually led me to mechanical pencils. That’s when the doors opened. Right now my portable brainstorming kit consists of an Ohto Super Promecha .05 and a pocket Moleskin notebook. For a while I used a Palm T2 for all of my organizational needs. I have since retired it in favor of the old school approach of the moleskin and an over engineered japanese mechanical drafting pencil. It’s like yin and yang, a perfect harmony of complex and simple.

I would love to find something like a combination of the OfficeMax Retractable gel pen and the Mini G2. I like the size of the Mini but I also like the clip mechanism that keeps the pen from clicking into the open position.

I would rather wander around a big stationery store than I would a clothes shop. When my kids were small, and all their contemporaries would be given a bit of cash to spend as they liked in the local sweetshop we would be heading off with a fiver each towards the nearest stationers. Folders, stickers, highlighting pens…..
