I like writing with different color pens and have a package of them to chose from. I have pens close at hand while I do genealogy research so I can take a lot of notes. Both my husband and I go through a lot of pens and I find myself always looking for replacements when mine run dry. Right now I have a bright blue ball point sitting next to my computer. Kind of a conservative color choice. Maybe switch to purple or chartreuse green next. What color do you like to write with?

I would run with your purple pen, Deborah 🙂

You know those Bic 4-color pens that can write in black, blue, red, or green? I used to like those. If I could still write by hand, I’d use one of those…

Yes, I had those pens before too. I used to use them for work when I wanted to write in black and red. 🙂

I like to have a wide variety of colors handy when it comes to pens, Deborah! 🙂 I like to doodle in color and also use different colors for marking up lists, manuscript, and even for journaling! xo

It’s more fun writing with different colors. I have used a variety with journals as well. xo

I know that point where you start looking for a new pen. I tend to stick with blue and black.

Blue and black are good for business settings. We do run out of the blue and black ones more often because my husband uses those too. But if you’re at home you can get a little crazy with colors if you want. 🙂

I have about 10 jars/mugs/pencil holders in my house full of colored pens, markers, colored pencils, paint brushes. These are some of life’s simple pleasures. Color is such a gift.

Wow. It’s great you have a bountiful supply on hand. I have a little bucket with pens. It is a simple pleasure I agree. Just using a different color for writing adds a bit more creativity.
