I always used my utility knife to sharpen them. They also make a special sharpener but they don't work too well.

These are great because they don't roll off tables and desks but my pencil sharpener for mine work great.

Since I don't have to write much any more, I just use a Bic pen to write out any bills.

Anything with a keyboard. Otherwise I can't write fast enough to keep up with my thoughts.

Rudyard Kipling only used purple ink on green paper "so his daemon would talk to him."

Did you ever wonder if there might have been some dyslexia? Blue paper often helps there for instance...and many especially talented folks have turned out to be also dyslexic...

Not for a moment though, of course, it may be so. But when I read that dyslexia hadn't found it's way into common usage. Most of us wouldn't have known what it meant.

Kipling 1865–1936...purple ink might have been something of a phenomenon in his time...perhaps truly quite important to him...his writing including poetry quite an inspiration for me, even from early childhood!

I have two beautiful Japanese fountain pens (one is extra-fine at 0.3mm, the other is medium at 0.6mm) that I use for special writing occasions! I have more but these are my favourites!
