Sometimes I like to go back and check out pens that I may have missed along the way. This is particularly the case for introductory pens, and often when I need to fill my cart for free shipping at JetPens! So this past week I ordered myself a Faber-Castell Grip Fountain Pen in Glam Violet…

Fountain Pen Review: Rubato Fountain Pen
One of the best things about pen shows is discovering a new-to-me creator. At the California Pen Show, I was able to walk around a bit on Sunday and stumbled across Rubato Pen Studio.

Fountain Pen Review: Kaweco Perkeo Limited Edition Infrared
