For years it was the Pentel Energel 1.0mm RT (retractable) Gel Pen. Smooooth. But, alas, they are becoming harder to find. And my one gripe--the ink runs out faster than you can pen the first chapter of that novella. I eBayed to get my most recent order, likely shipped from some back-alley pen vendor taking advantage of us pen-addicts with marked up prices on now obsolete disposable writing instruments.
Well, the search for a new scribbler worthy of my delicate digits lead me to Office Depot, and to Papermate Apex 1.6 mm. I need the chunk. I long for fat lines; "boss" lines. Juicy 1.6 mm black ink stripes. Must be retractable (I think I have a drawerful of pens without caps somewhere-no more!) and now I have found it. I ordered ten boxes (yes, you read that right--ten dozen) off Amazon.com. (free shipping, no tax) When I find something I like, I stick with it. If I like you, you're my friend forever and I'd lay my life down for you... if you're on my crap list, then, well, you're on my crap list...but I digress.
The lowly Papermate. Who woulda thunk it?
