Thank you William. I was gifted a hand made will and ink from Mary Diamond at the Fort Rodman Pyrate Invasion last year and I need practice with them. I took a look at the thread you suggested, thank you. I never thought about the paper. I have a leather bound journal with hand made paper in it that I now plan on bringing with me to events. :-) Period correct ink, pens and paper are not required for this. And in some cases, being hand written isn't required. (I understand that some people are physically unable to hand write letters, so printing them is fine) I just want to practice my cursive along with getting to know other pirates, privateers, and buccaneers. At least, that is my hope.

Ahoy Everyone! I was curious if there is any interest in pen pals. It's nice to get something in the mail other than bills. It also gives people a chance to work on their penmanship, which seems to becoming a dying art form. Personally I like using 'period correct' items, if possible, and like to write while at events. Not always, but it's fun for me. Anyway, would anyone like to be Pirate Pen Pals? If you are on Facebook, I run a group called Rennie & Pirate Pen Pals if anyone is interested. If you would like to look for someone other than myself to write to, or in addition to me, it might be worth a look. I don't post addresses, but encourage people to send a PM with the address for privacy and security. -Cassandra

LadyBarbossa, Thank you for the reminder. And because of it I would like to extend my apologizes. Recently I posted in just about every pirate group on Facebook, that I belong to, advertising an event I work for. I didn't even think to ask the group admins first. And I'm one of the first people to complain about how so many people have forgotten manners. My apologies again, Cassandra.

I'm speechless. Dutchess, thank you. I love writing and I'm even working on a book of short, historical, pirate stories. Not for publication, but for my own use, as my start as a Bard. Also I even have a Pirate Pen Pal Group. Thank you so much for my beautiful glass pen. I will have much fun learning how to use it. I've long been fascinated with bladder filed fountain pens, and I was taught by Mary Diamond at the Fort Rodman Pyrate Invasion 2015 how quill pens were made. I look forward to participating in next year's holiday exchange. :-)

Coastie, No worries. I wasn't thinking about warmth but I was thinkin' that it would keep them from fightin' *lol* I'm glad they are enjoyin' it.

I'm glad you all like it. It is crocheted, and if you would like a slightly larger one for the 3 year old, I can do that. ;-)

Anxiously awaiting to hear what everyone got. :-)
