There seems to be a small trend in young people getting into fountain pens, but in this age of thumb-typing and swiping, pens/ pencils in general don't seem so central.

I currently have 4 FPs on my desk at home. For a long time there was only one when I had MB FP, BP, MP set there. Before that there were no FPs for the longest time. I added the 4th yesterday when I finally acquired a 'grail' pen (Omas Arco Bronze). They really don't get that much use even though I try to reach for them whenever I need a pen. I still enjoy writing with a favourite FP though.

The last time I actually wrote out a letter was a card to a mentor/benefactor in Switzerland back at Christmas time.
