I'm on break, it's almost New Year's, and I can't do any more book proposal revisions today so I'm going to tweet about stuff I like. I was inspired by @erikhane's tweet about Pilot V5 pens (the only good pen).

Best pen: Pilot V5 pen in black. It not only has a great glide, but the ink really sinks into everything from a legal pad to a nice cotton paper. I got into them after I started collecting stationery and needed something better than ballpoint. Now they're the only pen I use.

Speaking of which, what's the best notebook, you ask? It's the Moleskine Classic Softcover notebook in black, with RULED PAGES.

Best coffee preparation method: black French press coffee. I want coffee that tastes somewhat muddy but not as muddy as Turkish coffee (which is also good, but not something I usually have).

Best pajamas: L.L. Bean tartan flannel pajamas. Some of the ONLY pajamas that come in petite, tall, and plus sizes!!!
