#6 reading trouble: oxford flashcards

I use the Oxford flashcards to write little notes for myself in books. When I bought the book, why, and any other relevant information goes onto the notecard.

I sometimes forget why I buy the books I do, so I've started to write little notes for myself. These @oxfordgeneration_bnl flashcards are perfect for this! Last week's pens: week 9 of 2026

This week saw a red week, full of new and old favourites. The three different nibs and three very different inks made for good variety, but I cannot in full confidence say that they worked together well. New post on Can you guess the ink? 🦑

It's the new Diamine Zeugma (Turkey Special Edition) I got while I was visiting @galen_leather's physical shop in Istanbul. @diamineink.turkiye bottles the ink in these beautiful bottles as well, they're well worth keeping Last week's pens: week 8 of 2026

Last week turned out to be the week of green pens and cool-toned inks. This made it quite pleasant to use the pens as a part of a palette as well, not only as individual pens. 

🖋️ Jinhao 80 -EF- with 🦑 Diamine Maj Home is where my stack of @colorverse.ink guide sheets is, tucked away in the second drawer of my desk. They sit next to other letter writing equipment like wax seals, safely tucked away from accidents, close enough to be ready when I want to write.
