Craft a Quill for Magical Writing

Feathery quill pens are the embodiment of air, the element that rules thoughts and ideas-the essence of spellwork. Think of how much more potent the words of a spell can be when they're written with implements made especially for that purpose. Find or purchase a feather to create a quill for magical writing. You'll also need a pen knife and a few craft supplies.
Use your favorite reference to trim the feather and shape the nib. (I use www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Quill-Pen-out-of-a-Feather.) Once the quill is cut and finished, paint or dye and decorate it. Use colors associated with the work you want to do: for healing spells, use a blue quill; for love spells, pink or red; for prosperity, green.
Bless your quill before you use it:

"From this quill
Flow my words.
And from my words,
Magic to (insert purpose)."

Keep your quill wrapped in a dark cloth when not in use.
