Thank you Feebs11.

So I think I can put either plural or singular noun after the word "any". Am I right?

e.g. I don't have any pen;

I don't have any pens.

You can - but consider the context of the sentence before you do so.

I don't have any pen to sign this with.
I don't have any pens [in my possession]
