In minecraft 1.3.1, they added the book & quill item that lets you write and edit a book in Minecraft vanilla. If you combine a book (gotten from 3 papers and a leather) with a feather (dropped by chickens when killed) and an ink sac (dropped from squid when killed), you will get a book & quill that you can write in. You're welcome for the info!
If you have the recipe book mod installed, you craft it with 1 ink sac and 1 book.

To write in a book, you don't need a pen. You just start typing. There is no pen in vanilla Minecraft.

First you have to make a book using 3 paper and 1 leather. Then, you must add a feather and an ink sac to your book which makes it editable.
