Breaking in

 Breaking in

My Deleter nibs arrived today. I decided to break them in, at first I was just stratching it on paper then I thought it would be a better idea to ink something done quickly.

Also, two books arrived. The Mayor of Casterbridge by Thomas Hardy which I really like. Fans of Greek tragedies might enjoy it. And Tristan and Yseult/Iseult, a story from L’morte de Arthur, or The Death of Arthur, the excalibur kind. Interesting history to it, but it’s a bit long and I don’t want to bore anyone lol. Just wiki if you’re interested.

oo…I had to read ‘Far from the Madding Crowd’ by Thomas Hardy for GSCE – very English countryside stuff it was!

agree’d with nicola, beautiful, smoothconfident lines- just lovely =) i find deleter nibs are particularly nice! it’s odd, ive only used them twice and they remain to be the best i’ve had so far, though i can’t get hold of them very much. =0

I’ve never read Victorian lit before, but the Mayor of Casterbridge is good, so I will check out Far from the Maddening Crowd.

Out of anxious or expressionless…..I’ll take anxious :D

Yep, Deleter nibs are good. I’ve been using cheap writing nibs before, the deleter ones are much better.
