Lovely reader Holly sent us a Life in Stationery recently. She and I were at uni together and she’s a fellow night owl – so thought her stationery story was appropriate for another late-night Monday post 🙂 ~ Carla

First things first, what’s your name?
Holly
What’s the best thing you’ve ever received in the post?
A birthday present
What’s your current favourite stationery item?
My beautiful wooden fountain pen with pink sparkly ink 🙂
Are you a diary writer?
No – I only use a planner to plan future events.
And are you a list maker?
Yes
Favourite ink colour?
I have to use pink for my job. I’d like to find a pink ink that’s scented and quick drying.
Your favourite place to write?
At a nice big clean desk.
Last thing you posted?
By mail? I can’t remember! Probably a wedding RSVP a long time ago.
Holly is a school teacher who would love to be an author. A prolific acquirer of pens and notebooks, who needs to make more time to write her as yet non-existent novel! We think pink ink for work is a completely brilliant idea (though Annastasia would, naturally, prefer green), and would love to know if any of you have come across any scented fountain pen ink!
