Writing in Style: Parker IM Pen

by

Sharing is caring!

I love to write. That should be pretty obvious, since I regularly update this blog, and my other one. But, what I mean is, I love to write with a pen on paper. I like to feel the weight of a good pen in my hand as I write letters to friends around the world. Since I often write letters so long and so frequently that my hand cramps up with most pens, I turn to the comfortable Parker IM pen.

It’s not just letters that I like to write, but to-do lists and notes, too. With all the technology out there for organizing notes, I still prefer to put pen to paper — it somehow makes me remember what I’m writing more, and holds me more accountable to entries on my list. I know that my mom feels that same way — she is constantly writing things down on paper to remind herself to do things.

The Parker IM pen is so smooth to write with, and I love the weighty-ness of it. This pen makes me feel like everything I write is important. Your mom is important too, right? Well, wouldn’t she love to have one of these lovely metallic pink Parker IM pens?

Valued at $50 (ARV), this Parker IM pen will make you want to write more often – letters, notes, to-do lists even.

You can find the Parker IM pen, and other Parker pens at specialty stores as well as Staples. Parker pens range in price from $32 to $80.
