Noting that I had been stiffed in a recent exchange, my gifter (we'll call her "E") said she hoped her gift would make up for it.

I should say so*.

This package is absolutely filled with completely luxurious, vibrant pens AND a great little journal that I am going to LOVE putting to good use!

There are 4 different kinds of pens, including a 3-pack of my all-time favorite Uni-Ball Vision Elite (won't leak in flight!).

Then there is a BEAUTIFUL Parker rollerball pen that is so elegantly hefty I feel like everything I write with it is An Important Thing™.

The 10-pack of Staedtler (motherloving STAEDTLER!!) triplus fineliners is one of the nicest sets of colored pens I've ever beheld. The barrel of the pen is triangular rather than round, which makes it so much easier to hang onto. The colors are beautiful and vibrant, and the nib of the pen is perfectly firm.

Finally, and probably the item that I'm most geeked out over, is a pack of SEVEN Varsity fountain pens (billed as "the everyday fountain pen") in assorted colors of ink. Fountain pens are incredibly rad on their own, but to have SEVEN of them... and in colorful ink?!?! I'm just jazzed.

This gift is beyond generous and absolutely perfectly suited for my tastes. This gifter really delved into what I would like and did some serious research to find these items. It makes me want to sit and jot, scrawl, note, compose, and doodle away for hours on end. Thank you SO much!!!!
