This may be a strange way to talk about a highlighter or the start of November but stick with me for a minute. The beginning of November for a lot of people means the start of NaNoWriMo.

Some days, I want to highlight text without blinding myself. This is only a problem that a connoisseur of pens would suffer. Who could solve this dilemma for me?

After my post on Highlighters a few weeks ago, I decided to go ahead and invest in a fountain pen highlighter. I purchased a Kaweco Ice Sport with a BB nib ($23.50) and a bottle of Noodler’s Firefly ink ($12.50). The Kaweco I purchased was a clearance item from Goulet Pens available with the BB…
