Which pen is right for you? 

It's hard to know where to start when choosing the perfect pen so we've broken down every kind of pen there is out there, its pros and cons and the perfect uses so you can decide what is right for you.

First up, we have the classic fountain pen. These timeless writing tools have been around for centuries, and for good reason. They offer a smooth, elegant writing experience, and are perfect for those who love to take their time over their writing. Our top pick is this Kawekoone. It's affordable, stylish, and comes in a range of colours – what more could you want?

If you're looking for something a little more modern, you can't go wrong with a rollerball pen. These pens offer a similar writing experience to fountain pens, but with the convenience of a ballpoint. Our favourite for 2023 is this Rollerball Pen. It features a super-fine tip that makes writing a dream, and comes in a variety of bold colours.

For those who prefer a ballpoint pen, we recommend this Jazzy one from The Completist. This sleek, slimline pen is perfect for everyday use, whether you're jotting down notes in a meeting or writing a letter to a friend. Plus, it's refillable, so it's a more sustainable option than disposable pens.

Last but not least, we have the humble pencil. While it may not be as flashy as some of the other options on this list, there's something comforting about using a good old-fashioned pencil and offers brilliant flexibility, from sketching, writing, drawing, calculating you can do everything!

So there you have it – our top picks for the best pens to use in 2023. Whether you prefer fountain pens, rollerballs, ballpoints, or pencils, there's something on this list for everyone. Happy writing!
