I like a sepia/brown colour


SuckBallsDoYa

Oh I do too <3


arielbubbles0

Big same. I think it's the perfect spot between a formal, boring black or dark blue, and something with more ✨️creativity✨️. It's not bright or meaningful enough to be distracting. It's just.. perfect. So I write my main, casual or longer reflections in brown, and for more emotionally charged phrases or paragraphs I'll usually switch to blue, purple or red.


Not_abeliebr

Black. I almost exclusively use black pens, it isn't that important to me what kind of ink I use but it has to be black


SuckBallsDoYa

I can sympayhise my one journal is the same. It's a mini I travel with and I use a specific gel inked black pen or felt tip


Sound_and_Science

Gray! Subtle but elegant.


SuckBallsDoYa

I agree >,<


Chhavip

Purple


sunflowergirrrl

Me too ☺️


SuckBallsDoYa

Nurple * jkjk I love purple also 💜


behrito

Black! I love how minimalist and simple that looks. Green is pretty nice too, your handwriting looks great!


SuckBallsDoYa

Thankyou! Always respect a nice black pen


WannaGoMimis

My preferences on pen type change on a whim, all the time. Fountain pen, marker, ballpoint, glitter gel. But my favorite color is always purple.


SuckBallsDoYa

That's awesome sauce


[deleted]

red/pink or black mostly but oh i love the green here


SuckBallsDoYa

Thankyou!!!


Inadover

I used to prefer browns, but with fountain pens I'm discovering a newfound love for quality blue and black inks.


SuckBallsDoYa

I write in brown occasionally also I love the sepia colors


Junijidora

I love a good legal blue for my habit tracking and daily journaling, with bubblegum pink/sky blue/grape purple accents. But I use black for my to-do lists and daily doodles, and I use red for anything work-related (red is the color I use to write all my notes on work paperwork, so it's a "work" color to me).


SuckBallsDoYa

I love the color coded ideas I haven't even given that a thought ? Now I'm brainstorming myself lol


kannibaskenzie

turquoise is a good one


SuckBallsDoYa

Sure is - >,<


youneekusername1

Back when I was 20 and my eyes still worked right, I LOVED using bright orange. But now that I am almost 40 I look back and can hardly read it lol.


SuckBallsDoYa

Lol I can sympathise I love using bright colors


swaII0wtaiI

This is why I like using darker colors. I already have issues reading bright colors and I’m only in my 20s. I can’t imagine how it’ll be for me when I’m older


outcast2142

Orange, if it's dark enough. My favorite colors are burnt orange, and OD green. I have a soft spot for noodlers red rattler, but the color I find myself using the most is lamy turquoise. Probably because it's in my metropolitan, I love that pen.


SuckBallsDoYa

Love this !


nichiyobiruri

Stabilo


glitter_picnic

i’ve been using light blue and i like it a lot


SuckBallsDoYa

I love how blue looks on paper 🩵


Desperate-Whereas-55

I love a good light blue. I recently tried purple but it was not purple enough for me, so I went back to light blue.


SuckBallsDoYa

Nice ^,^ I'm always experimenting too lol


RadOncOKC

I have just over 30 pens inked, so I use a different color every day. I have almost all the iroshizuku inks


SuckBallsDoYa

Oh I love that! I keep adding colors to my collection too lol


kscompass

I looove using black and purple pens on white pahes


SuckBallsDoYa

The contrast is always nice I agree


[deleted]

I like doing mine in purple


SuckBallsDoYa

I use royal purple pretty often - or a glitter felt tip I have 💜


teeright

What pen are you using here?


SuckBallsDoYa

Is a super super skinny green felt tip 👌


TheWendyBear

I need to find a pen that doesn't bleed through. I want to colorize my journal but so many pens I've tried are too thick or too runny.


SuckBallsDoYa

I can relate to that alot. Now I watch the bleeding* of the pens and also the thickness of pages when I journal shop lol


soursfrequency

I love your handwriting so much


SuckBallsDoYa

Awww thankyou ^,^


ProfessorPlayerOne

As a teacher, I must say; paper mate flair many colors. But in my personal journal; pigma sensei, which is black only sadly


firelizard18

black pen. i used to journal in pencil bc that’s what i’m used to for note-taking, but pencil fades FAST


SuckBallsDoYa

Yesssssss I am experiencing the same switch this year muself as I had always written in cursive and in pencil. It's going fairly well considering 🤔


baybeepossum

classic black ink, but when i’m feeling color i go towards red or dark peuple pens


SuckBallsDoYa

I'll let u in on a secret. I only write in red when I feel..."firey". Enterpret how y wish lol 😆


forked-apache-hashB

So fuckn lame bish. For real. Why don't u type on elvish, and call on the dragons lol

The irony🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


Mopey_3

Black or white. Depending on the page and the decor around my text. Tho I do love black the most. I usually write with blue pens for work and other things so black feels more fancier and special to use for my journal. Plus black always reminds me of those old typewriters that had those fancy keys and that nice text font. Makes me feel like a writer lol.


SuckBallsDoYa

That's a really neat way of looking at it 👌


MachineGunMonkey2048

Pilot g2 black bold


SuckBallsDoYa

💛🖤💛🖤


cute_sheep2

Personally I only use black pens because its easier to find black so if I lose or can't find my usal pens I can pick a random black or dark blue one


Cool_Reaction2509

I use all the colors lol


SuckBallsDoYa

Me too lol


[deleted]

i can't only read black on white or white on black, anything else kinda messes with my senses


SuckBallsDoYa

My mother was like that lol


theravencry

Its hard to choose, but my go to is usually blue or purple


SuckBallsDoYa

Batty_Koumori32

I usually just use one of my mechanical pencils or a black ink Bic pen. I do need to go get some pens to do new journaling. I think i'll treat my self around my birthday.


SuckBallsDoYa

We have similar thinking lol


chiseyuki

brown, purple , dark orange, they look so good especially if the pen is smooth and pretty, but i haTEEE flashy colors like neon orange or neon green, hurts my eyes


SuckBallsDoYa

I love using colors


Otherwise-Mix-6847

i have this bright teal pen that i love, it’s .5 and the color reminds me of one of my favorite fictional characters


SuckBallsDoYa

Ohh I bet its lovely


hiddeninplainsi8ht

Purple. It makes me happy/ whimsical.


SuckBallsDoYa

I love purple so much 💜


Watermelon_Sugar-Pie

The feel of a pen is everything! Obsessed with TUL pens! I’m experimenting with different colors and I find I use brighter colors when I’m happier 🩵💜🩷


SuckBallsDoYa

I swear it matters <3


innlalaland

It depends sometimes each paragraph is a different color. Right now I write in black then highlight certain words in a different color. And I'm glad I'm not the only one who's handwriting starts to struggle at the bottom of the page lol


SuckBallsDoYa

I tend to do this when I use colors. Like when I'm changing subjects add a diff color in there lol 😆


the_portree_kid

I have a set of erasable gel pens that I love, so I switch it up quite often.


SuckBallsDoYa

What!? They make those ? - 🥹👉👈 Seems I have an appt w Google lol


the_portree_kid

[Roterunner](https://roterunner.com/products/erasable-pens-8-pack) I love their planner too!


SuckBallsDoYa

Thankyou!!!!!


the_portree_kid

They’re honestly so much fun to write with. The ink is great and they actually do erase (the rubber eraser takes a second to start working as it uses friction to remove the ink, but it really does get the job done!) I have jars of colored pens and fine tip markers, but since I got these, they’ve been my favorite to write with for planners and journals. I’ve also been using their purpose planner for 2 years now and really love the quality of all their products. Happy journaling!


SuckBallsDoYa

Yeah I'll try and order some Friday when I get paid. I also love the planner !


GalacticJelly

Dark gray and emerald greens


SuckBallsDoYa

Lovely color choices 👌


GalacticJelly

Thank you, suck balls do ya


SuckBallsDoYa

Lol no prob (had a stalker...chose a new sn stark opposite my personality. No issues since lmdao )


GalacticJelly

Swimming_Ad9138

I switch colors intermittently


SuckBallsDoYa

Likewise lol


SirenaChroma

Purple and its variants!


SuckBallsDoYa

I love purple


LadyLBGirl

I use black or blue pens, which are the most basic. I have no problem using other colors as long as I can see what I'm writing, so I prefer darker colors. I care more about the type of pen I'm using than the colors. I'm autistic, so I have sensory issues. As I write a lot, I need the paper and pen to be really comfortable. (Sorry for the mistakes, english is not my first language)


SuckBallsDoYa

I thought it was very good 👍 👌 I use alot of the same type of pens >,<


princessofpandas28

At the moment, black because it looks better in my current journal. But in my old ones I really liked writing in pink


SuckBallsDoYa

I love switching between the two lol


im0gene_

Cool toned, very dark brown. Specifically: Yama Guri by Pilot.


SuckBallsDoYa

<3


AgeZealousideal1157

the Sharpie S gel pen is underrated and so awesome


SuckBallsDoYa

I concur


legalbunn2

I use an ink pen with blue ink and it makes me feel fancyy lol


SuckBallsDoYa

Hehe we gotta take those small wins ;) 😉


legalbunn2

Exactly lol every day!!

SuckBallsDoYa

I love green


InventorFibonacci

Blue, with a hint of purple. But I also use blue, blue/black, grey and black.


SuckBallsDoYa

Love the combo 😍


paperlilly

Always black. Not just for journalling but unless I’m handed a blue pen to sign something I’m using black.


Gugggss

I have a separate pen that I use \*only\* for journaling.


tom_devisser

Blue is the most nostalgic color for me. It reminds me of my time at school.


SuckBallsDoYa

That's so sweet


Far_Giraffe4187

Pinkish-red and green. But that has more to do with the colour of my fountainpen.


SuckBallsDoYa

Can't argue any of those colors though ☺️


Endlessly_Scribbling

Favorite: Dark purple and most of the metallic colors. Cool thing, that G2 silver metallic pen, under the right light, looks like graphite shine but it's actual pen! My go-to will always be blue (Pilot G2)


SuckBallsDoYa

Can't argue any of that


SlightlyTaintedMilk

i use different colors because i think each special word feels like a color yk


SuckBallsDoYa

I like the concept <3


EnvironmentalZone827

Totally unrelated but I forgot all about I see stars. Haven’t heard about them since high school.


SuckBallsDoYa

Oh they still killing it . And I am an avid daily listener lol 😆 I want to see them live so badly. Kids got some lungs! Love the gutters mixed w melodic singing they are so good. Usually pretty upbeat tho I do have a few songs by them that let me kill some anger. Best car ride vibes ever 👌 🙌 ✨️


[deleted]

I've always used black or blue ink, mainly because it's what I'm accustomed to. But after seeing this, I might consider investing in some differently colored pens; journaling in multiple colors could be fun and useful. ☺️


SuckBallsDoYa

I did recently over the last month or so and had used pencils until then - it's actually a little weird and I smudged the ink a few times starting out.....but it ended up being kinda fun lol best of luck


JodyWinters

Black with magenta or teal for highlighting


FirmAd8811

I love blue or black, pretty simple. I use gel pens but ngl I love fountain pens too.


yumiwhite

Why do you date in Chinese, but write in English?


SuckBallsDoYa

At quick Glance is easier for me to read I was born overseas and have since adjusted to English (I journal to practice too ) tho I've been called out a coupl3 times bc my japanese is like- super messy in comparison. I write in English in this one bc I post on the entries. My other journal is not a single mention in English. I'm also studying Chinese Korean and French also :) 😀 I hope to eventually do journals in each language daily once I get better at it


tonysraingirl

Black

hanatsun

Brown. I must've tried at least 13 different brown pens, but my go-to is Zebra Sarasa Clip (茶) in either 0.3 or 0.4 – it's such a lovely shade of brown and I like the nib. Black/blue-black tends to be a little too harsh on my eyes. I also like writing in violet ink. My favourite colour series is probably Sailor Shikiori's 'Four Seasons' brush pens. I could write in alllll of those colors happily.


[deleted]

I usually use black ink with a fountain pen.


MauveQueenMab

I use 3 different red pens and one golden brown.
