Abstract
The application discloses a writing instrument adapted to be worn on a forefinger, thereby allowing the user of the instrument to pursue his normal activities without interruptions necessitated by picking up and setting down a writing instrument each time it is needed. Accordingly, the writing instrument of the present invention includes a holder adapted to fit on the end of a finger and having interior constriction rings enabling the holder to firmly grip normal variations in the forefinger of either an adult male, an adult female or a child. A substantially conically shaped writing means is firmly affixed to the holder and may be characterized by either an ink or crayon writing capability. In the ink embodiment, the writing means includes a conically shaped ink reservoir having an appropriate writing tip engaging the apex thereof and an air-vented capillary tube to insure uniform ink flow.
