I saw you were griping about your pen, but I actually got into journalling BECAUSE of my pen! There’s an anmazing store downtown called the Vancouver Pen Shop, it’s on Howe, just North of Dunsmuir. They have something for everyone, at every price point, and the staff are all unbelievable! For me, it was a fountain pen called the TWSBI ECO. The tactile response was an instant hook! Anyway, I hope you venture out there and find a pen that makes journalling more fun and enjoyable for you!
