A whole new way to explore fountain pen ink.

Ten things you probably won't find at a stationery store that have become an integral part of my usage of fountain pens and inks.

Happy Fountain Pen Day! Hypothetically, if I could only keep one pen from each brand, which pens would I choose?

I have relatively large control over the appearance of my living environment, and I choose to surround myself in color.

There's less than a week left to support St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital during September! I've completed three special Twitch stream topics unlocked by donations so far.

I wanted to visit a new pen show this year, a bigger show, and "The Fun Pen Show" in San Francisco did not disappoint!

For the sixth year the Relay podcast network community is supporting the life-saving work of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and I've created a sub-campaign with Twitch streams and custom rewards featuring fountain pens and inks!

I do a lot of fountain pen ink swatching, so finding reusable tools that would produce a good swatch and could be cleaned quickly and easily at my desk was important.

Join me for a "bag dump" of the pouch of accessories and tools that I bring when meeting up with pen friends.

In mid-April I started on a project to re-swatch all my inks on Col-o-dex cards with little sketches inspired by the ink name, packaging, and/or color. Now four months in, I took a look back at the process so far.
