I just bought my first fountain pen off of Amazon and I’m a little disappointed. I’ve been looking forward to receiving it because I want to start getting into fountain pens. I feel like it’s not writing great (I’m holding it at a 45 degree angle) I have to put pressure which I know you aren’t supposed to do. I’m also having to write superrrr slow to make it look nice. Could it be my ink or paper? Or even the pen?
