I love the way a thread about using pencil or pen has managed to span 10 pages

You mean you guys are still writing in cursive?

I stopped using a pen back in 1995, except to sign my name somewhere. Otherwise I type. I graduated from a typewriter to a word processor to a computer. I prefer the computer because it a) saves paper and b) I can backspace to fix typos. While my handwriting is quite legible, I hate scratching out mistakes when my hand does not catch up to my brain. And writing out by hand takes too long.

And yes, black ink is best.

I prefer pen instead of pencil as when I write through pen it just feels a great thing and also it has a direct connection to the heart
In pencil what happens that there is a problem of tip that will be broken as the time goes on and as we write something

Why use either? Why not type? The physical act of writing has been reduced to nostalgia. Once that wears off (which is probably very quick, for most people), it's like walking when you could be driving...

I've always liked writing in pen, but recently, I found I like writing in mechanical pencil. Guess what? I never erase anything. A single line through the word or mistake is fine for me. I like writing in pencil. I like writing in pen for mathematics though, but that's something I was forced to do in Year 7 (two years ago...). Really, I just like writing.

I prefer the pen. being a lefty when I write in pencil lead gets into the whole side of my hand and I hate that. I always tried to use the pen in my math class last year and I have often yelled at for it.

i prefer pen. being a lefty when i write with pencil the lead gets all over the side of my hand and i hate that. i would always try to use pen in my math class last year and i often got yelled at for it.

I'm a lefty to. I usually use my MacBook but when I do use a writing implement I also use pens. I guess that would be for my idea journal.

Pen. I had an english teacher in high school that insisted we write everything in pen because that way we couldn't go back and change our thoughts, because our first thoughts were usually better, or something like that. I don't know exactly the reason, but I liked it, and ever since I have been writing in pen. Even in math class, and my teachers would get so mad at me for all my scribbles whenever I did a problem over, haha.
