Pen Again
The PenAgain is an ergonomic writing device developed by Pacific Writing Instruments, Inc. The PenAgain was designed to alleviate stress and reduce the risk of repetitive strain injury while writing.
Writing with the PenAgain differs from writing with a traditional cylindrical pen. Some users have reported that a learning curve is required with the PenAgain due to its "Y" shape. The writer's index finger sits in the Y-shaped device, so that the weight of the writer's hand directs pressure to the pen’s tip. This eliminates the need to grip the pen and push the tip into the paper. The index finger guides the tip of the pen, removing stress traditionally placed on the thumb and forefinger while writing. This hand posture reduces the likelihood of calluses and cramps.

Famous quotes containing the word pen:
“Well, I know you haven’t had much experience writing and none at all in pictures. But I’ve heard about you. It all sounded like you’re just the man I wanted for a story about the Navy. I don’t want a story just about ships and planes. I want a story about the officers.... I want this story from a pen dipped in salt water not dry martinis. Do you know what I mean?”
—Frank Fenton, William Wister Haines, co-scenarist, and John Ford. John Dodge (Ward Bond)
