Happy Fountain Pen Day Sailor Pen Giveaway!

Fountain Pen Day is this Friday, November 1st, and to celebrate a little bit in advance, I have a great giveaway for you.

During my trip to Dromgoole’s last weekend, I picked up a Sailor 1911 Standard 4 a.m. Fountain Pen with a Zoom nib to give away this week. What better way to celebrate Fountain Pen Day than to give away a really cool one like this? Same rules apply as always, so read them below and enter away!

Limited Edition Japanese Pens, Shipped Worldwide, From PenSachi (Sponsor)

Sachi (幸) means Happiness in Japanese, and the name says it all. All of us at PenSachi love to make you happy by delivering to you the best writing instruments and the most satisfactory writing experience ever.

My name is Ken Katsumoto, and I am the owner of PenSachi.com. At PenSachi, we are a team of both Japanese and foreigners who simply love fountain pens very much and would like to have a career where we can see fountain pens everyday.

Back then, we really started everything from zero! As we are based in Japan, it is very hard for us to reach to customers abroad due to language barrier and time zone difference. Some of our employees still take night English classes in order to deliver better customer service to our customers. We want to introduce the beauty and quality of Japanese writing instruments to the rest of the world.

Currently, we carry products from Sailor, Pilot, Namiki, and Platinum. We also feature products by pen style, such as Demonstrator and Sparkling, as well as a wide variety of standard and specialty nib selections.

We have a special corner for Japan exclusive limited fountain pens. About our products, we are striving to introduce more and more Japanese writing instruments to the world. So we are considering other brands such as Nakaya, Wancher, Kuretake, Hakase, etc. And not only fountain pens, we are preparing to introduce Japanese notebooks to our customers in the near future.

Above all of this, we hope our customers enjoy a HAPPY shopping with PenSachi and have a HAPPY experience with our products. Only that makes us a complete PenSachi.

My thanks to PenSachi for sponsoring The Pen Addict this week.

Thank You Houston!

I’m back from my second visit to Dromgoole’s in Houston, Texas, and had more fun than ever. Thank you to everyone who came out and said hi!

I’m just now starting to get caught up on work, so I’m going to delay my Monday review until Friday. The rest of the week should play out as normal, with Twitch streams on Tuesday and Thursday at 10 a.m. Eastern, and a Wednesday podcast - although not a live one since Myke is off this week. Special guest incoming!

Until then, come say hi on Twitter or Instagram, and enjoy your stationery!
