I want to emphasis the suggestion of picking up a box of Musgrave 600 News if you enjoy pencils. It is a weird pencil. I carry several of them in my tool bag (they work well as carpenter's pencils for situations where you need a better point for writing), and will sometimes pick one up to annotate a book. I found they work best with a non-long point sharpener, as the graphite is so soft, it's quite difficult to not break the point, especially if you have a heavy hand.
