Gentlemen,

Sometimes when I need to get away from my home office to work on the novel, the local bookstore is the ideal place to go. Since I am working on the first draft of the third novel, and since I always write the first draft with a fountain pen, I take along two pens filled with black ink. Rather than taking them in their original boxes, which are a wee bit clunky, I transport them in my briefcase in Thiers-Issard straight razor leather cases. The cases sat around the shave den unused.
