## Description

THE WRITING FISH Writing grip ergonomically designed in the UK as an aid for people with arthritis, grip difficulties, writer's cramp and other writing syndromes. Black ink.

Review: Never go back to an ordinary pen!! - I mean, this isn't 100% fixable to my pain but I at least feel comfortable writing with this ive been able to go back to college to do maths and I don't feel the insecurities anymore with not being able to write. I tried everything else but this is the only thing that works. My hand pains is very severe. Please can you order more i could do with more coloured pens for uni these are a lifesaver Good job i have loads cos the recent one i bought is covered in ink after i took it out for a refil😭😭
Review: Excellent aid to relax hand. - Is comfortable. I’d like take opportunity to say WE can buy on desertcart boxes of Bic crystal refills - no need buy whole pen. I’m go say good value at £7. You expand the fish inside a polythene, under running hot water - instructions on back of packet.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you replace the biro with your own pens?**
A: It’s designed specifically for the BIC Cristal pen. The hole is the exact same shape. It may fit other pens but, it would be at your own risk.

**Q: Does this work for left handers?**
A: Yes it will do. I use mine all the time at work.  It's really chunky and didn't take me long to adjust writing with it

**Q: What way do you hold it? Fish eye to the side or facing up?**
A: The tail goes at the nib end. I didn't find it comfortable to hold but found a "fat", round and smooth pen much better such as Lamy or Berol.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Helpful gadget
*by A***R on 20 December 2018*

I hesitated before buying this as it seemed costly for a small chunk of plastic and a basic pen. That said, a lot of thought has gone into the design of this item. I suffer from an inflammatory, erosive condition which attacks my hands, so that sometimes I can't hold a standard pen, or handwrite for more than a few sentences before I get severe pain in my hands and finger joints. The Writing Fish helps align my fingers into a more supported writing position and it's more comfortable now. One downside - after just a few days, the supplied pen leaked and was unusuable, although a standard pen fits, so it's not a huge cost, just an annoyance.
