My first pen show of 2018 is in the books, and it was a blast. It's hard not to have fun around so many great people. I'm travelling home today, so look for the site to return to it's normal schedule tomorrow, and a full recap of the show on Wednesday's podcast.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by and said hi!
We had an idea to do something different for the Pen Addict Meetup in San Francisco. What if we brought people together not just to hang out, but to hang out and learn something new at the same time? Enter the Pen Dash.
We discussed the idea on last week's podcast, but had no idea how it would play out once it was go time. It wasn’t without a few hiccups, but overall, I felt it was great, and the feedback was awesome.
With nearly 100 attendees - and that may be a little short - we had to enlist several extra table hosts on the fly, and I wanted to make sure all of those hosts got the recognition they deserved. I owe a huge thanks to:
My good friend Franz Dimson captured some of the event on video and uploaded it to YouTube for everyone to see.
Thanks again to everyone who made this possible, including the amazing San Francisco Pen Show promoters and SF Pen Posse that make this one of the best events of the year.
Another great show is in the books, and I'm sad it is my last one of the year. At least I went out with a bang! I'll have more pen show talk on this week's podcast, with special guest Joey Feldman. Look for it on Wednesday.
