Hi Angelica,
I love Fox and Quills ink. Do you think there is a problem with the ink quality? Or is it too thick? Did you try watering it down a bit? Is that the only ink you are having problems with? Did you try that nib with a different ink to determine if it is the ink or the nib?  Did you prepare the nib properly for ink?

Those are the things I would start with in terms of trouble shooting. Let me know what you think!  ;D
Warm Regards,
