Jane Austen, born 250 years ago today on December 16, 1775. English author of six novels that have rarely (if ever) been out of print in the 200+ years since they were first published.
“I was quiet, but I was not blind.”

This ink is very well behaved, just a beautiful blue with very slight red sheen and silver shimmer.

"What If This Road", Sheenagh Pugh
Leonardo Green
Leuchtturm Standard A5
Parker 180

The intent of this nib was you flip it 180 degrees to write on the reverse. It's a bit dry on the reverse, as if out of ink.

As leftists & as poets, I don’t think we talk about “The Soul of Man Under Socialism” by Oscar Wilde enough.

The Picture of Dorian Gray, Oscar Wilde

A timeless tale of beauty, sin, and corruption. Wilde’s only novel shocked Victorian society and became a cornerstone of queer and Gothic literature.
