Luckily, every Cross pen—from the Calais Chrome ballpoint pen to the Century II Black and Gold Rollerball—opens the same way. Whichever type you own - ballpoint pen, fountain pen, or rollerball - these simple steps will help you open the pen safely and easily: Hold the pen half an inch from both ends.  Pull gently to remove the top half of the pen.  If it seems stuck, twist the two halves while pulling. Hold the pen straight with the pen tip facing downwards.  Turn the old refill counterclockwise to release it.  Pull the bottom half up to remove the refill from the barrel.  Make sure you have the correct refill by comparing it to the old refill. Insert the refill with the pen tip first.  Turn the refill lid clockwise to secure it.  Align the top of the pen with the bottom at the midsection. Turn the top half clockwise for half a turn. The refill should come out of the barrel of the pen. Confirm the pen is working by scribbling on a piece of paper.  By following these steps and the information in this cross pen refills guide, you can open and refill your pen without difficulty.  Now, what's next?

I was once a typo queen with a perpetually filthy screen. When my students were in their final year of high school, I did everything in my power to support them. Thus, my laptop, iPad, and cell phone were all switched on 24/7, and I was on high alert. I insisted on replying to my students’ concerns as soon as possible. But my fingers didn’t follow my thoughts. Over the course of my day, students sent me their completed work. Every spelling mistake was an affront to my eyes. I was persistent in correcting them, mostly through my cell phone. At the time, I had no idea what a stylus was. One day, I received an email from one of my students. “Why did I get a lower grade for making spelling mistakes when you do it all the time?” The student was perhaps a little bold, but he spoke the truth all the same. It jolted me into looking up the messages and tasks I had previously sent them. In nearly every message I had made at least one spelling mistake. I needed to do something about this! I’m a language teacher! I’m supposed to set a good example in writing for my students. Typos are not an option. My new method was to reread every single message over and over again before I sent it. It helped a little bit, but my messages still weren’t meticulous. Enter my ultimate solution: A Stylus Saves the Day Cross Tech2 Chrome Stylus Pen   I started searching on the internet for a solution to my problem. Nearly all of my searches referred to the same tool - a stylus! Types of Stylus A stylus is a pen-like tool that is specially made for electronic devices. The main purpose of the stylus is to write and draw on electronic documents with accuracy and a bit more grace. There are two types of stylus pens. Active Stylus An active stylus is a little bigger than a regular pen, containing internal electronic components. Features include pressure sensitivity, memory, and electronic erasers. Pressure sensitivity allows finer and thicker lines, depending on the pressure you apply to a device. There’s also a feature called palm rejection. You can put your hand on the screen while writing without interference. Passive Stylus (aka Capacitive Stylus) A passive stylus is usually a little smaller and doesn’t contain electronic components. This type of stylus cannot connect to your device. You can use it on any touch screen that will also register your fingerprint. Which Stylus Pen? My next question was whether I could use one stylus for both my cell phone and iPad. While Apple offers its own Apple pen for both iPad and iPhone, there is a whole world of stylus pens that work as well. My ultimate goal was to improve my digital writing experience with my pen choice. But I also wanted something that had a real ballpoint tip in order to switch between digital writing and writing on paper. So I got the Cross Tech3, and it's been perfect for me! Advantages of a Stylus Pen Here are the 3 reasons I will never look back after switching to a stylus pen: 1. Avoid Typos at Any Cost My mission was to have a stylus pen because it’s incredibly easy to use. You gain a better overview of the keyboard and the typing is faster and more precise. Your fingers can easily navigate, zoom, and click the content. When it comes to typing or writing accurately, you need a stylus pen. There’s no chance of pressing two buttons at the same time (this always happened to me). Everyone has to jot something down on their tablet once in a while. A stylus pen is a perfect sleek substitute for the fingerprint on any screen. My lettering is now legible since I started using pens for iPad.  It is so easy to embrace styluses in the age of touch screens. Today, I’ve got a few stylus pens in my collection. They work for Android as well as iOS devices.  Plus, I can always reconcile the world of papers and screens in a single pen. It has a regular ballpoint tip on one side and a stylus tip on the other. 2. No More Smudgy Screens By using a stylus, you can easily avoid fingerprint smudges on your screen. Answering the phone with dirty, greasy, or wet hands is avoidable with a stylus pen. Once I was washing my hands while my cell phone rang next to me. I cast a look. It was my kid’s teacher. I grabbed a towel, but I couldn’t sufficiently dry my hands fast enough. I picked up my phone and tried to answer, but nothing happened. My fingertips were too wet for the screen to register. It stopped ringing. At that moment, I wished I'd had a solution, and a stylus would have been a great option. Is it easier to just grab a pen or to lose calls because you’re too busy drying your hands and cleaning your screen? Think of a stylus pen like using utensils when you eat - it just makes mealtimes that much more convenient.  As everybody hates smudges on their clothes, I equally hate seeing them on my devices. Apart from not looking nice, smudges diminish device sensitivity. The next issue is germs on the screen. I’ve noticed that sometimes I need to scratch my face in the middle of typing. Now, imagine how many germs I can avoid if I use, for example, an ATM with my stylus pens! 3. Enjoy Neat Coloring If your writing is neat and precise, think about how easy coloring and drawing can be. There are so many apps for coloring. It’s relaxing, especially if you use different iPad pens. The rubber tip of stylus pens offers a great sensitivity while coloring. Not everyone is worried about typos. Especially if you write in your first language. There are so many tools that can correct your typos automatically. You can even choose the dialect you like. Still, when you’re coloring the point is not to color outside the lines. If you choose to use styluses for your iPad, the precision of the lines will be perfect. In that way, coloring on the device can be way more fun than coloring on paper. The same goes for sketching and other artistic endeavors. Go the Stylus Pen Route Styluses are my favorite discovery. Since I started using them, they have become my best friends for digital writing. I already have a lot of pens in my house, but I started to collect styluses as well. These products have become a part of my everyday life. And do you know what? After committing to styluses, I retired my crown of “typo queen”. Now, I have the right to frown at other people's typos, because I know the secret. My secret is a stylus. You may be wondering where to begin looking for genuine, high-quality, and elegant pens.

After suffering a horrendous road accident in 1999, Stephen King penned Dreamcatcher. Written in longhand using a Waterman cartridge fountain pen, King wrote the novel between November 1999 and May 2000. And writing the old-fashioned way, with pen and paper, was therapeutic for the king of horror: “To write the first draft of such a long book by hand put me in touch with the language as I haven’t been in years. I even wrote one night (during a power outage) by candlelight. One rarely finds such opportunities in the twenty-first century, and they are to be savored.” Today, ballpoint pens and typing on keyboards have become more popular than writing using a fountain pen. However, fountain pens still have their place. Here are the top reasons why Stephen King loves using fountain pens to write by hand, and why you should too: Writing With a Fountain Pen Is Therapeutic for Him The act of handwriting can be rhythmic and calming. As you write, you’re forced to focus your thoughts. This has the effect of calming your mind, just like meditation. Expressive writing is particularly effective in healing both psychological and physical ailments. A small 2002 study from Kansas found that women with breast cancer experienced fewer cancer-related symptoms in the months following expressive writing exercises. The subjects who did expressive writing also had fewer medical appointments. Just like expressive journaling, writing fiction can be both cathartic and healing. It can help a writer to externalize negative feelings and cope with trauma. When Stephen King sat down to write after his accident, he hoped it would distract him from his pain. It was five months after the accident, his leg was in a painful brace, and addiction to Oxycontin was taking root in his system. Finding it too painful to sit and type at his desk, he picked up a Waterman and started writing. “Suddenly I had this huge, huge book … I didn’t think about the pain as much. It’s like being hypnotized,” he said of the experience. King weaved his physical and emotional struggles into the sci-fi/horror tale Dreamcatcher. One of the novel’s main characters, Jonesy, had been involved in a car accident, obviously inspired by King’s own car crash experience. In fact, everyone in the story is in pain pretty much the entire time which, while horrifying to readers, would prove a cathartic outlet for Stephen King. Fountain Pens Help Unleash Stephen King’s Creativity Studies show that the art of writing by hand improves brain function in various ways. A study from Indiana University found that the mere action of handwriting taps into creativity that isn’t easily accessed any other way. Similarly, the University of Washington found that children who wrote by hand were writing more words and expressing more ideas compared to those who typed on a keyboard. Various other studies have found that children who learn to write by hand learn to read faster. Some researchers claim that cursive handwriting may help in treating people with dyslexia. “It slows you down. It makes you think about each word as you write it,” Stephen King said of writing using a Watermark Fountain pen. Upon release, Dreamcatcher was critically acclaimed for its creativity, with the novel incorporating classic elements from King’s older works in order to create something uniquely powerful. “I think Dreamcatcher is a brilliant exception to the rule,” Stephen King said. “a classic suspense film that will eventually go on the same shelf with movies like Jaws and Alien.” He even boasted that Dreamcatcher “would do for the toilet what Psycho did for the shower.”  “What I didn’t realize was how many doors the act of writing unlocks, as if my Dad’s old fountain pen wasn’t really a pen at all, but some strange variety of skeleton key.” -Stephen King Fountain Pens Write Easily According to Stephen King Image from stephenking.com Why did Stephen King choose an ink pen over a ballpoint? It could be that writing with an ink reservoir pen is deemed sophisticated and therefore makes a unique statement. Or, it could also be as simple as the fact that it is easier to write using a fountain pen. When you’re using a normal ballpoint pen, you have to press down on the paper. But because reservoir pens use liquid ink, they enable your hand to glide smoothly and easily as you write. This allows you to write for extended periods without tiring. For prolific writers, a stylographic pen also means fewer issues with hand cramping. In his author’s note for Dreamcatcher, King lauded the fountain pen as “the world’s finest word processor.” The ease of writing with an ink pen enabled him to write Dreamcatcher in half a year as he recuperated. The fountain pen made the experience enjoyable for him. This is why he savored writing even by candlelight during a power outage. Find the Perfect Fountain Pen Even if you’re not a prolific writer like Stephen King, you can enjoy the pleasure of using a reservoir pen for a multitude of reasons. Fountain pens can be used for: Journaling Signing checks Writing cards Writing in your planner Taking notes  Shop Now: Luxury Customized Fountain Pens   If you aren’t familiar with the ins and outs of selecting fountain pens, don’t fret. Here are some tips to help you buy a starter pen: Consider the Nib Size Image from penheaven.co.uk The nib of a fountain pen is the pointy part through which ink flows onto the paper. In the 16th century, the word nib meant a bird’s beak. The nib size on a fountain pen should be one of your key considerations when purchasing. Ideally, the nib width should suit your style of handwriting. If you have large handwriting, choose a pen with a broad or medium nib. There are also extra-wide nibs for calligraphy. With smaller handwriting, Stephen King would have appreciated a fine or extra-fine nib. Don’t Overlook the Nib Material Image from thewritingdesk.co.uk Fountain pens use different materials for their nibs. The tip of your pen can be made of anything from stainless steel to gold. While stainless steel tips write as smoothly as their gold equivalents, they’re mostly considered to be cheaper. The best fountain pens have gold or palladium tips. Gold-nibbed pens tend to have finer finishing, allowing for more comfortable writing. If we were to choose a gift for Stephen King, we would opt for a gold-nibbed stylographic pen. Consider the Filling Mechanism If you write a lot, like Stephen King, opt for a vacuum or piston filling mechanism pen. This means more ink capacity than cartridge/converter pens. If you need to change the ink color frequently, cartridge/converter models are your best option. Size and Weight Are Also Important Image from blog.gouletpens.com The ideal stylograph should feel comfortable in your hand. Especially if you’re using the pen a lot, like Stephen King. If you have large hands, you are likely to find a small pen uncomfortable. Likewise, those with smaller hands might find large and heavy fountain pens clumsy. The weight of a stylograph pen is largely determined by the material it’s made from. Most pens have aluminum or stainless steel bodies. Some have a carbon fiber finish. Most fountain pens weigh 25g and under. A pen that weighs 30g is generally considered heavy.  Further Reading: Types of Fountain Pens Aspiring to Be Like Stephen King?

Such a study is said to reveal the emotional and psychological state of the person who wrote the script at the time it was written. Similar to a personality quiz, a thorough look at your own writing will uncover what you are feeling at the given moment. These feelings bubble to the surface and are expressed through your writing style. Grab your favorite pen, write the following phrase, then you can start the quiz. "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." If you’re eager to learn more about what your handwriting styles say about you, follow our simple steps outlined below in our handwriting analysis quiz.

At Dayspring Pens, we engrave for both righties and lefties! Taking a Closer Look at Left-Handed Pen Engraving We note that we train our eye to look for decoration in the standard direction. The image below shows our default location for pen engraving, and the direction of that engraving. The top image shows the standard engraving location and direction. This is appropriate for both right and left handed people, not just right handed. Why? Again, we train to look for decoration in the location shown in the top image, regardless of whether the user is left handed or right-handed. Therefore, we don't need to engrave differently for left-handed people. However some people prefer that the engraving be done in the opposite side of the pen and in the opposite direction so that a left handed person can read it when in use. The image on the bottom shows how we engrave for a left handed person. We do this only on request, and offer it for most pens, but not all. However, we cannot engrave the backside with grooves or lines in the barrel. When we engrave a pen, as shown in the bottom image, it might appear backward or upside down to a right-handed person. If you need a gift pen for a left handed person, just request that it be engraved for left handed person, and we will engrave in the direction and location shown in the bottom image.
