Sunday Notes and Links

Esterbrook #407 inkwell viewed from the top

This week’s favorite pen was the Esterbrook Dip-less which I Reviewed on Monday. I finished cleaning a #407 inkwell and dumped in a bottle of Sheaffer Red to match to pen.
I did a lot of writing this past week and emptied several pens. In a break from past habits I’ve been switching inks but not pens.

Some links of interest…

A couple 2014 DC Pen Show recaps:

D.C. Pen Show 2014 Recap! — The Gentleman Stationer
DC Pen Show 2014 (Massive Post!) – Inkdependence!
An Introvert Goes to the Pen Show – From the Pen Cup

The Commonwealth Pen Show is coming to Somerville, MA, (near Boston). It’s not the same place or organizer as last year’s New England Pen Show. I missed DC but it looks like I’ll be able to make this show since it’s a relatively short drive and hotel parking is free. It Sunday Sept. 28th only.
I enjoy seeing what other people pick as favorites or what they have currently inked:

2014 LE Glenmont Group Buy! – Edison Pen Company // The Edison Group by for this year is open. Both pens are beautiful although I’m trying to have enough willpower to pass this year. I have to hold out until Sept. 5th.
