The Journal's Pen
A journal without a special pen cannot be. The pen must write freely across the page, not stopping, just flowing with words. Words that become images. Images that come alive again when someone reads them. I think that you need a special pen or pens when you are writing. I have a ballpoint pen (some in different colors) for each journal I keep. I have not written in all my journals but if inspiration strikes I will be ready. It is a writer's tool and it is important to connect with it, next to the journal/writer's notebook you keep, this is the next most important thing.

My pen's called Scratchy (because of the nosie he makes in a quiet room). This is about his 6th incarnation, the other 5 having sadly passed on in various ways - out of ink, left on train, left in washing machine...
Without scratchy I can still write, but I am not a happy bunny.
I am the same way. I get attached to a pen too. If I lose it, I go crazy, usually I have just misplaced it. I have a few I use, so I do have back up.
