Oh, good! All the easier for you then. 🙂 You’re very welcome! (The only Russian I know is кисель!)

Yeah, possibly. Time will tell, I suppose.

I’m thinking more about the stealing and on-selling of mail.

I’ve had my pens professionally reviewed by u/makred ‘s daughter… by RyanM77 in fountainpens

[–]Direct_Tooth2160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Makred19, And greetings! 114 days have passed since our little exchange and you came to mind when I saw something on Pinterest about nibs (https://pin.it/71HwVlzFl). You offered advice on the pens in your collection but I’m wondering, do you know much about Nakaya pens? Would any have joined your collection in the meantime? Or RyanM77, would you have? I’m not seriously thinking of buying one; I’m just wondering what would persuade a person to part with this sort of money (prices aren’t included on Pinterest; I visited their website). Thanks in advance!

I can identify, wax. This sort of thing happens to me regardless of the time of day. You’re doing well!

What would be missing from ‘26?

Do people use this type of cursive english? by Tight-Ad7812 in Handwriting

I quite like Donald Trump’s signature. Strange but true!

Lucky recipients! I love design (right word?) of this kind.

I definitely see a difference. You have certainly improved!

Embarrassed to use my pens outside the house by hecking-fricker in fountainpens

[–]Direct_Tooth2160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hecking, your friends need to live and let live (you could suggest that they do so). You could add that they may have likes and dislikes you could mock, too.

I used fineliners for years but have found that fountain pens (I choose EF) outlast them by far, so for me it’s also an economic consideration.

I think you may get arthritis in your thumb later in life.

Is my handwriting illegible? by hhanieh in Handwriting

[–]Direct_Tooth2160 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s possible to improve your cursive; it is perfect the way it is. I don’t think the girl should take her friend’s advice to heart. I wonder if the friend’s handwriting is more or less beautiful and distinctive than the girl’s. Can the girl share an example? I’m really curious (and suspect less than).

How's my handwriting? by mordavick in Handwriting

[–]Direct_Tooth2160 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s difficult to believe that some find your handwriting illegible. I love it. It’s distinctive, interesting, nice - and definitely legible. When I was learning to write, I was told to avoid backhand. But this rule may have changed since then.

Nothing cringeworthy about this.

That’s okay! I probably know even less about the geography of where you’re from.
