Quality pens for lefties?

[Brewmeister35]

Okay, I have an attorney I need to make a pen for. Basically she won me custody of my son and did so for extremely cheap (that's relative of course!). Anyway, she's a lefty and I watched her write and she drags her hand over the ink. Is there a rollerball refill I can have her use or fountain pen ink or do I need to stick with a parker style? I'd love to "wow" her and possibly get some big $$$ business from colleagues and such.

I just tried my pen with a Hauser Black med nib rollerball and I can run my finger right behind the nib while it lays ink, and doesn't smudge, although a different type paper might present a difference.

I'm sorry your friend the attorney was taught by a right handed teacher, dragging her left hand over the paper. If you do a fountain pen there are several inks that dry fast. Lou from Heritage Pens might be a better than myself in knowledge of fast drying inks. Although I picked up a fast drying Private Reserve Sherwood green last week. Anthony from Penworks would be another authority an inks from IAP. Their both members here at IAP. [8D]

Ah yes, the perverbial left hand/overhead method.

I learned how to write with a stick pen and ink well and learned to attack my writing from above, hand over the written word....looks strange to a right handed person, but worked....

And no, I'm not that old, just from a country school in a poor country....
