Fountain Penning

Dear friends, As some of you might know I was recently given the opportunity to fly to NY to partake in a fundraiser which was held in memory of one of my best friends, whom we lost to suicide 3 ½ years ago.

All of the immensely skilled performers told their stories through their respective disciplines to present themselves as Living Proof that one cannot only survive, but live and create in the face of adversity.

I got to share my own mental health journey, which I had never done so publicly and openly.

The fact remains that all of this could only happen because my friend died, the sheer pain of which I couldn’t possibly capture in a few sentences on here. And yet, I am so lucky to have known Miles at all, to know the people that loved him most in the world, and that I get to carry all of this with me wherever I go.

TAP FOR SOUND 🔊 Don’t mind me talking to myself in public. I’m very excited for the fountain pen event next week in Belgium and to play nibmeister for y'all! I hope I’ll see you there!
