Bought the hubby a fountain pen for Christmas.
He writes as well, and I'd like to find a (short) quote about writing to have engraved on the pen. Any ideas?
Bonus points for Latin...

What are his writing habits? Would "carpe noctem" (seize the night) work for him? :)

He isn't consistent re: time of day. "Carpe noctem" is more me... :)

Scribo ergo sum.: I write, therefore I am.
Ars longa, vita brevis. Art is long, life is short.

"Scribo ergo su" wins it!
Thanks, Admin! :)

That should be "Scribe ergo sum" -- not su!

Yep; thanks.
I actually checked with a friend who teaches Latin.
Should be Scribo ergo sum.
