About Toga's Stationery Vagaries

Welcome! My name’s Toga, & I love stationery. I especially love fountain pens & inks, but stationery in general has always been a big love of mine. I worked for over a decade in the Stationery & Print industries in Scotland, but health issues meant I had to leave them behind. And that’s where part of the name comes from—I’m largely confined to a bed, so not only do I love stationery, I'm stationary!

So what is this blog for? I’ve been posting often on Mastodon about fountain pens & inks, but with the release of the Majohn A3 I realised I had more I wanted to say than could fit in the 500 character limit. And so, this blog was born. I can’t say I’ll be taking you on adventures in stationery, more like erratic wanderings or vagaries. Expect posts every month or so. If you have anything you’d like me to talk about, please feel free to message me on Mastodon or send me an email.

All reviewed stationery items have been bought by me unless otherwise stated.

Thanks for stopping by!


AI use on this website.

I am very much against generative AI. It doesn't create anything new, only steals from actual artists. As such, no generative AI is used on this site, neither is AI used to help with writing or recording any posts. Non-Generative AI tools are used while editing images, limited to object/background removal, content-aware fill, and occasionally upscaling low-res images.
