At the moment i'm using a 0.32 pen from Muji to write my characters. What do other people use?

Last time I tried to write chinese with help from a friend who lived there and has it as their native language, I had good success with this:


Cheap too

Remember that china is on the otherside of the world to you, therefore you will need a pen that can write upside down

anything really. You can write chinese with a pencil, pen, even a paint brush. .. well that is if you know how.

that's true but i find certain pens work better for me, such as the pens muji sells.

Since the language has a lot of finer details in the characters, how about one of the Staedtler Fineliner pens? You can get a pack of them for just over £10 off Amazon in a variety of different colours. They might work, but any pen with a finer point might be usable enough. One of the people I know who speaks Chinese writes it using an everyday Biro, but I suppose being able to do that takes a lot of time.
