Welcome Aries! I am a huge Harry Potter fan myself. In fact, I have a wizard wand pen holder - I just couldn't help myself.
It's not very often I hear someone say they enjoy the smell of sumi ink; usually it's quite the opposite, so that made me chuckle. I personally don't mind it, but I also barely notice the smell anymore.
Anyhow, it sounds like you're loving every bit of calligraphy, and that's wonderful! We're glad to have you here.

Metta,
Welcome to the forum! Your family and friends will really enjoy receiving your cards when the time comes. Don't be surprised if they eventually insist on them over store-bought, like my mother does!
Emjoy!

I have never seen that before! Nifty. What's the Perry 120 like? I have never used one.

JANIS
I had the same thought! Thanks for sharing so much of your incredible knowledge and advice, Jean. Your depth of knowledge and your practical, thoughtful approaches to the questions asked here are invaluable.

Welcome to the forum, Birdy! I also favor the more flexible nibs - less tiring! It's great that you've found what you like and can expand from there. That 101 is flexible, fine, reliable and economical - lots to love. Enjoy!
