I write about 2,500 words a day without a scratch. I write small, so I prefer a fine point. I also use the back of the nib.
To stop the scratch, I use the Palmer writing method. This means no finger movement. It works best with a shallow pen angle. The hard part is ultra-light pressure so only the ink touches the paper.
In my opinion, a steep angle and finger movement cause scratching.
Paper does make a difference. I find these inexpensive notebooks from Walmart work well. I use Monteverde ink.
This is my favorite pen.
It takes practice. I've written 242,007 words since 10/13/22, but then, whose counting?
