Happy National Fountain Pen Day!

Celebrate National Fountain Pen Day — Rediscover the Joy of Writing by Hand with a Fountain Pen.

There’s something magical about slowing down, uncapping a fountain pen, and watching ink flow across paper. November 7th 2025 marks National Fountain Pen Day, a celebration of craftsmanship, inspiration, and the timeless joy of writing by hand. Whether you’re new to fountain pens or already have a favorite in your collection, today is the perfect day to pause, pour a cup of tea, and write a note, card, or letter.

If you’re new to fountain pens, here are a few tips for choosing one (3 basic tips to begin with):

• Start simple. Look for an entry-level pen that feels comfortable in your hand.
• Choose a fountain pen you like how it looks. You'll be more likely to use your new fountain pen if you enjoy how it looks, feels in your hand, and enjoy how the ink looks on the paper when you write.
• Choose one that is within your price range - if it's within your price range you prefer it's less stressful as a process to begin your fountain pen writing journey

Already have a fountain pen?

If you already have a fountain pen, take a few peaceful moments today to write a letter or journal entry. Enjoy the physical connection between ink and paper.

Let’s celebrate the simple joy of writing and keeping this tradition of fountain pens alive — one letter, one note, one fountain pen stroke at a time.

Warmly,

Sally
