@Tristan Berndt - I drew in pen because drawabox and Scott Robertson recommended it. I think I will still do my starting exercises in pen (because those are more focused on making lines/ellipses look better when first drawing them), but I think I follow your logic on why I should try using pencil on my other stuff (like my XYZ drawings and my Loomis proportion drawings). I tried it today and will continue to try using it. It didn't feel that much different (except that I could actually erase instead of crossing stuff out or trying to make the important stuff darker), but I will see where this goes.
I would like a second opinion on this pen/pencil thing though.

Side note: I'm running out of ideas for my XYZ drawings. I'm thinking about maybe trying to draw anatomy with the XYZ drawing method, but I'm not sure if that will be too complicated for me. Scott Robertson's book shows using XYZ specifically for planes and cars, but planes and cars don't particularly interest me - at least, I don't know how they are visually interesting. Maybe that's just me, though. I need to think more on this.
