< Handwriting just might be the write pace for me

Noswaith dda, inquiry, sut wyt ti heno?

That Murphy, he's a sly one, I'll give you that :)

Anyway, I also have an appreciation for good handwriting and fine writing implements (aka fountain pens). I find that there is a distinct pleasure in writing things out longhand -- it taps into muscle memory and creativity and the joy of doodling as you said. I also enjoy practicing writing in different scripts.

I rather like the "nibs dipped in ink" route (is that the same as "fountain pens"...?), but I still need to rebuild a bit more focus transmuted to aimless mind flab by the internet to work at that pace.

I was also a big fan of Pentel graphite (?) pencils - the 0.5mm and 0.3mm complementing each other nicely. The little satchel I recently brought out of internet asphyxiation has a couple of the 0.5mm's, but I'll need to dig for my 0.3mm.
