When i was a kid we were allowed to write with pens only from grade 5 ,and in beginning of grrde 5 all students very exicted to write with pens ...ink pens we use to fill the pen with inks every day write with it some times ink use to spill and all our hand sometimes dress too use to get blue with ink .We were not allowed to write with ballpoint pens because the teachers believed it will spoil our handwriting .once i got out from schoolmi never used ink pens .does anyone here still use good old ink pen to write ?

I hardly write anything anymore besides short notes and memos, all the rest gets doen with the computer (at work). So fo regular day writing I use a ballpoint as that is what you usually have laying around. for letters (if I ever write one) I use a real ink fountain pen. The one you have to fill from a and ink pot. I like it a lot. it flows so nicely where a ballpoint is sharp and edgy to write with.

Beautiful, readable handwriting - Italic handwriting
I love to write with a pen - especially an edged pen that makes thicks and thins depending on the direction. I taught myself to write Italic hand - it took me only a few months. Sadly, my handwriting has deteriorated since I began to use a ballpoint so I still pick up an edged pen from time to time and practice.

I love ink pens from school days and I even today use the inkpens. In fact the good handwriting comes from Ink pen. I love parker ink pens with fine nibs.

I have a fountain pen I use for fancy writing, but for the most part I use a ball point pens. I write a lot on paper. This is usually when I am not sitting at the computer or am waiting somewhere. Since I am fairly good typing I can write it down on paper and then type it into the computer later.
