This week’s title is borrowed from Austin Kleon who wrote a short post about SHITT (Should I Try This?). He claims that SHITT is a close cousin to FOMO and describes it as a condition that may plague many of us — the inclination to see or hear about someone else’s method for accomplishing a…

Author AnaPosted on September 13, 2023September 13, 20231 Comment

Can I tell you how mesmerized I am by the guerrilla crack repair done by the aritst Ememem (see the link below in “other interesting things”)? I love random acts of art like this. I love trees wrapped in knitwear, sidewalk chalk paintings and beautifully created murals. I love when the neighbor decides to repaint…

Link Love: Long Weekend, Short Attention Span

Author AnaPosted on September 6, 2023September 4, 2023Leave a comment

Long weekends throw my whole schedule off. Don’t get me wrong, having an extra day off from the jobby-job is great but everything else gets scrambled. Is it Taco Tuesday yet? When is Knit Night? Is it Link Love day already?!?! Where did the week go? What’s your best technique for getting back on schedule…

This week is filled with more answers to #21penquestions, nib knowledge, love for Clairefontaine paper, a review of the Pacific Northwest Pen Show (that name is really long. It needs an abbreviation. Maybe Pac No Ps? Maybe we should workshop that a bit?) and quite a few tech-related posts. Many folks are headed to DC…

Over the last week or so, I've been slowly updating the shop. First, I have added more pen clean out and ink destashing. Patrons get advanced notice when I do stationery cupboard clean outs so if you join the Patreon, you too can get first dibs when I clear out my ever-expanding pen, paper and ink stash. I've been a little stressed by my collection -- that feeling of having too many things to keep track of, etc -- that I'm probably removing items from my collection that are from the core of my collection, not the fluff....
"review" of the Schon DSGN Monoc nib and Pocket Six anodized aluminum pocket pen. I say "review" because its just 100% praise for this amazing nib and pen.
Federalist Pens released their latest ink collaboration with Robert Oser: Frankly Walnut ($18 for 50ml bottle) which was unveiled at the DC Pen Show this year.
