Pens & Stuff

As of October 2014, most of my blog posts relate to writing instruments because pens (and, to some extent, pencils and paper) represent my most recent acquisition disorder. Moreover, I've found that a lot of readers are getting directed here from other blogs that are primarily devoted to pens and related office gear. Accordingly, I created this page as a welcome mat for the loyal readers of referring blogs (such as The Pen Addict and The Well-Appointed Desk), and I encourage those readers to check out some of the non-pen and non-office related content here.

Here are some of my posts that focus on specific writing instruments:
