Abstract
The writing implement holder may be a device that is adapted to hold a writing implement on a user's finger such that movement of the user's finger may move a tip of the writing implement against a surface. As non-limiting examples, the writing implement holder may be adapted to be worn on an index finger, the writing implement may be a pen, a pencil, a marker, or a stylus, and the surface may be a sheet of paper, a tablet computer, or a smartphone. The writing implement holder may hold the writing implement to compensate for a lack of dexterity after an injury or illness, to avoid direct contact with the surface, or both. As non-limiting examples, injuries and illnesses that may reduce dexterity may include a heart attack, a stroke, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, or any combination thereof.
