I highly recommend changing that. Writing with a fountain pen is a very different experience. You can feel the texture on the paper and it makes my awful handwriting much better. If you want to try for cheap, PlatInum Preppy pens are cheap and decent. Different inks can also impact the feel.
I've wanted to try them before, and even bought whatever people were saying was a good starter a few years ago. The issue is that I honestly never write anything in pen. I think the only time I do is when I'm addressing a letter or check, which never happens these days. So the pen just dried out with basically no use...
A good fountain pen! The cheap ones feel like chalk against blackboard.
