The funny thing is, my handwriting was actually quite different in some respects back when you were 15 and I was 16. It was a lot neater, more regular,with a greater x-height and more restrained ascenders and descenders (which is to say, less squashed in the middle but not so easy with the flourishes). Maybe I should scan in something from the 1980s? But it's still the same handwriting. Weird.
I'm a Uniball gel-pen girl myself. I don't think less of you though. I can't handle the rollerball. It's too fast man, too fast! I feel like any second, my pen will careen off the paper and crash.
I don't think I can follow all the rules of blog commenting. I'm sorry. I just wanted to say, I love your bravery for using x365 on inanimate objects. I SO wanted to do this, but somehow felt it cheating. Thank you for changing my mind.

I covet your penmanship. Also, I too cannot live without these exact pens. I buy them by the gross.
...and suddenly I'm 15 again. Handwriting must be like smell.

I love those, too. I made friends with the law clerk who does the supply ordering in our office just so that he would order the pens I like.

I LOVE those pens! I used to buy the huge boxes of them and everyone would steal them...
I've recently been having a surreptitious affair with the #2 pencil.

I am currently addicted to the uni-ball IMPACT RT in blue. It's fat and juicy and smooth.
A far cry from my former fav - uni-ball Deluxe Micro in black. I liked its scratchiness, for some reason.
Your handwriting is gawgeous.
