Gimme Shelterwood Winners

I love giving away Field Notes. They are great brand and one of my favorite portable capture tools. Regardless of if you are a seasoned Field Notes veteran or a complete novice, every edition they make is worth checking out. The Shelterwood Edition has proven to be one of the most popular Field Notes editions ever made so I am glad these three winners are going to get to use and abuse them:

Congratulations to all of you! Please get in touch via the Contact Page and I will get your Field Notes Shelterwood Editions shipped out.

Top 5 Pens - Spring 2014

Do you know this pen?

It has been six months since my last Top 5 Pens update and I have learned many things during that time. For example:

-- My fountain pen love and knowledge continues to grow.

-- I have a serious fountain pen ink problem.

-- There is a lack of innovation in office supply stores. (I guess I've always known this)

-- Good pens stay good.

-- I'm perpetually behind on reviews

Seeing a bunch of new pens listed makes me happy, although many old standbys still can't be beat. The fountain pen lists saw several changes, and I added new lists for blue black fountain pen inks and multi pens by reader request.

Read the introduction at the top of the page, explore the list, take it all in, and let me know if you have any questions!
