I thought there was NO way that I would react to the next ink as well as I reacted to the last one. No freaking way. Day 13’s ink is called “Upon a Star.” I tested, as per usual, using a borosilicate glass dip pen in a Maruman Mnemosyne notebook. The paper in the MnemosyneContinue reading “Diamine Inkvent 2022 – Day 13”

A reminder content note here: I understand Advent is a Christian artifact, regardless of its presence in my life and ancestry as a cultural event. I am not Christian, though much of my family is, and I am not happy with the Christianization of secular culture despite having grown up immersed in it. I promiseContinue reading “Diamine Inkvent 2022 – Day 12”

Very curious about today’s door………. Day 11’s ink is called “Appletini.” I tested, as per usual, using a borosilicate glass dip pen in a Maruman Mnemosyne notebook. The paper in the Mnemosyne is good for sheening inks but isn’t as thin as Tomoe River, making it easier to use a sharp glass pen. Appletini isContinue reading “Diamine Inkvent 2022 – Day 11”

Enthusiastically opening today’s door………. Day 10’s ink is called “Dusted Truffle.” I tested, as per usual, using a borosilicate glass dip pen in a Maruman Mnemosyne notebook. The paper in the Mnemosyne is good for sheening inks but isn’t as thin as Tomoe River, making it easier to use a sharp glass pen. Dusted TruffleContinue reading “Diamine Inkvent 2022 – Day 10”

The paper in the Mnemosyne is good for sheening inks but isn’t as thin as Tomoe River, making it easier to use a sharp glassContinue reading “Diamine Inkvent 2022 – Day 9”

At this point, I’m stoked with each door I open. Today’s door opening! *drumroll*………. …. Well THAT’S a choice. Day 8’s ink is called “Jingle Berry.” (goes off in fits of giggles) ((Yes, I’m a child.)) OKAY let’s ignore the name and get on with it. I tested, as per usual, using a borosilicate glassContinue reading “Diamine Inkvent 2022 – Day 8”

I knew there was no way that today’s ink could hit me like the last one did, but I kept an open mind. And with that, today’s door opening! *drumroll*………. Day 7’s ink is called “Alpine.” I was surprised that we had another tree-themed ink so quickly, but hey, let’s run with it. I tested,Continue reading “Diamine Inkvent 2022 – Day 7”
