Ghost writer

Ghost writer by Matt West.
How come the simplest ideas take the longest to get right? This was a pen suspended by a piece of wire, which I then digitally removed. I've just spent two hours putting the text in there - couldn't settle on the font, couldn't get the angles right. Now why didn't I just write it in the first place? ;O)

REPLACED 21.10.07, a subtle change - hope it doesn't affect anyone's comments :O)

hehehe, yes, why? well done... although....one little mistake: why is the tip of the pen blurred but the text is sharp? shall we blame it on the ghost? :-)

The Look and Read pen hits middle age. ( I think it was Look and Read with the pen that taught you how to form certain letters of the alphabet)

Now you're showing your age! (& mine) I can't remember the pen, but no doubt that image is kicking around my subconscious somewhere! Who can forget Wordy though? ;O)
