Apple Pencil ergonommics

I have very large, arthritic hands and find the Apple Pencil to be too thin to use comfortably for longer than 10-15 min at a stretch. Any suggestions or tricks that have worked for people? Thanks!

OR

Go to an Office Supply store to see if you can find some cheap rubber grips for regular pencils that can be used on an Apple Pencil.

Maybe try a hardware store or home improvement store. Look in the plumbing department for some rubber or Tygon-like tubing that has an inside diameter just enough to slide the Pencil into. Get a piece of that and make a sleeve for the Pencil - that could effectively double (or more) the diameter of the Pencil barrel
