♤♤♤PEN GIVEAWAY♤♤♤ https://i.nostr.build/sY8o5mX5Bla2XS6j.jpg Good morning glorious Nostriches!!! Welcome to the second (and third) Pentographer Pen Giveaway! https://i.nostr.build/roiq8calWKayP5Yd.jpg The first giveaway was such a huge success and I wanted to continue this contest but take it in a bit of a different direction this time. This giveaway will last two weeks this time around and I'll be giving away TWO Majohn A1 fountain pens! This will encompass both the November and December giveaways so it is technically two in one! This giveaway will have a different entry requirement to reflect the double giveaway and distinguish it from the first one. This time I want Bitcoin whitepaper quotes! https://i.nostr.build/W5SV2XO6rGqXivc8.jpg You can enter two ways: You can write out a line from the Bitcoin whitepaper and send that to me via note response, DM, OxChat or Simplex depending on your privacy preferences. OR You can TYPE it out in your favorite font and do the same thing. No being lazy though, it must be an image of what you've typed. It cannot just be a text response to the contest note. https://i.nostr.build/t1iig1zH8tF8NqMn.jpg Again, you may submit up to five entries but they must be separated even if the lines are adjacent. They can be on the same page just make sure they're obviously different quotes as it makes it easier for me to count the entries. I want to make this one a bit more accessible to those who prefer the digital side of things hence the favorite font option. Anyone who prefers handwriting is welcome to use whatever they like to make their entries! We got some really creative entries in the last giveaway so I hope some are able to pull that out again this time! Try to have fun with it! If you have any questions, drop a comment below and I'll get back to you on it! Best of luck to all who enter!! #penstr #letters #fountainpens #artstr #creatr #pengiveaway

♤♤♤PEN GIVEAWAY♤♤♤ https://i.nostr.build/sY8o5mX5Bla2XS6j.jpg I think it's time for the second pen giveaway! I was planning on announcing this a bit sooner but life has been crazy lately with us selling our house, going on holiday and now Canada Post is on strike! So many things. https://i.nostr.build/roiq8calWKayP5Yd.jpg So this giveaway will last two weeks and I'll be giving away TWO Majohn A1 fountain pens! This will encompass both the November and December giveaways. This giveaway will have a slightly different entry requirement from the first one. This time I want Bitcoin whitepaper stuff! You can enter two ways: You can write out a line from the Bitcoin whitepaper and send that to me via note response, DM, OxChat or Simplex depending on your privacy preferences. OR You can TYPE it out in your favorite font and do the same thing. No being lazy though, it must be an image of what you've typed. It cannot just be a text response to the contest note. https://i.nostr.build/t1iig1zH8tF8NqMn.jpg Again, you may submit up to five entries but they must be separate EVEN IF THE LINES ARE ADJACENT TO EACH OTHER. That just makes it easier for me to count the entries. I've tried to make this one a bit more accessible to those who prefer the digital side of things.

My daughter decided to get up at 5 in the morning so I figured I could get some writing practice in. I'm testing several different pens and a few inks. I enjoy writing with them all but I prefer the fine and flex nibs so far. I've got a long way to go but I'm doing my best to be diligent about my practice. #penstr #letters #fountainpens #pangrams

Visiting our family for three weeks. Taking the time to work on my handwriting while we're here. I basically brought most of my pen collection so I've got tons of options to write with. It's a good time to slow down and reflect and savor the time with family. It's more important now that we live 20+ hours away. Take the time and do some writing. #penstr #letters #fountainpens #artstr

I'll never get tired of this style of pen. I bring one of these with me everywhere. They're a fantastic design that works well in many situations and they write so nicely!! The A1 has to be a favorite of mine and that goes for the Pilot Vanishing Point as well. I can't wait to get my hands on a real VP. #penstr #letters #fountainpens #artstr

An EDC pen with a brushed finish. I think it looks pretty slick. The cap only twists one and a half turns as well which is much nicer than others that are two, two and a half turns. I think I'll end up using this pen for my handwriting practice book. It has fairly large examples and practice lettering in it and the J16 is perfect for it. #penstr #letters #fountainpens #artstr

It's new pen day! I haven't gotten photos of it yet so you'll have to hold tight. I'll post some later. It's the Asvine J16 with a broad Jowo nib. I haven't even inked it up yet. Looking forward to using this bad boy. #penstr #letters #fountainpens #newpenday

Office is dismantled but the wife and I had a better few days. I think the worst is behind us now. Bittersweet times and the stress isn't over. Now I need to locate my giveaway pens so I can start November's giveaway while we're on holidays. #penstr #letters #fountainpens #artstr

Still loving the V200. Thinking I should get it in a fine nib as well. What I really need to be doing is exploring altogether different nib types. I need to get some broads and probably some stubs as well. Maybe an architect or a music nib. It's been hectic the last few weeks moving everything we own. It'll be a different time for a while and I should remember to do some writing amidst all the chaos. Anyways, have a happy Sunday! #penstr #letters #fountainpens #artstr

I'm back again with another review! This time, it's a set of penrolls that I has made by nostr:nprofile1qqs07xqktt77qzzj6jdyuyckexqu0tcpvnqczrqtcrlyr5mpm4720uqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9emkjmn9qyvhwumn8ghj7urewfsk66ty9enxjct5dfskvtnrdakshy532m . https://i.nostr.build/JIlHdL9DZn7WtT3A.jpg Now I'm new enough to fountain pens that I have a fairly small collection so I have little need for huge storage solutions just yet and it's with that in mind that I started thinking about how I was going to store and transport some of these pens on a smaller scale to start out. https://i.nostr.build/xp7oMBbdc6mTKX2Q.jpg I first solution I got was a set of leather pen slips. Several single pen slips and one two-pen slip. These are great and I've still got them, but they're really more for everyday carry versus long term or even medium term storage. Typically I'll carry my Lamy Aion or Monteverde Innova in those as a daily carry pen but I'm not keeping them in the slips when I don't have them with me. This is where nostr:nprofile1qqs07xqktt77qzzj6jdyuyckexqu0tcpvnqczrqtcrlyr5mpm4720uqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9emkjmn9qyvhwumn8ghj7urewfsk66ty9enxjct5dfskvtnrdakshy532m comes in. I don't remember exactly how we connected but he mentioned to me at one point that he made watch and penrolls which intrigued me as my pen collection had grown enough to justify a larger storage solution so I inquired further. After some discussion and agreement on the colours blue and red as well as size, the first penroll was made, shipped, received and perfect. https://i.nostr.build/fvmrj2esrLunjsL1.jpg Obviously I needed some more, so I asked nostr:nprofile1qqs07xqktt77qzzj6jdyuyckexqu0tcpvnqczrqtcrlyr5mpm4720uqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9emkjmn9qyvhwumn8ghj7urewfsk66ty9enxjct5dfskvtnrdakshy532m if we could go smaller, different colors and an additional feature. I asked him if we could get a slim plastic strip inside the outer lip of the pockets. Some of my pens have very stiff clips and I felt this would help stop the clips pulling on the material so badly which it in fact, did. Besides that, I had him make it in a green and purple, two colours which I enjoy. Thus was born this beauty! https://i.nostr.build/YL1a2EZbL3ivjH96.jpg https://i.nostr.build/KkgSIOFZw34X5fbe.jpg I love this penroll as it works perfectly for my job. It doesn't carry as many pens as the first, but it carries enough that I can have some selection when I'm at work and have some time to work on my writing. https://i.nostr.build/OtWHzsqvw9ekEn75.jpg Finally, I wanted one for a special purpose and so this last roll was born. https://i.nostr.build/NDPiyRrouums65cI.jpg The third penroll was created specifically with my three MaJohn Q1's in mind. Since they are an odd shape and extra wide. I wanted a roll specifically for them and nostr:nprofile1qqs07xqktt77qzzj6jdyuyckexqu0tcpvnqczrqtcrlyr5mpm4720uqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9emkjmn9qyvhwumn8ghj7urewfsk66ty9enxjct5dfskvtnrdakshy532m made me one out of duck canvas and it turned out amazing! It's the perfect size for all three pens! https://i.nostr.build/PGHXD8ge8kprARlx.jpg Overall the experience working with nostr:nprofile1qqs07xqktt77qzzj6jdyuyckexqu0tcpvnqczrqtcrlyr5mpm4720uqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9emkjmn9qyvhwumn8ghj7urewfsk66ty9enxjct5dfskvtnrdakshy532m is excellent. He's very responsive, listens to your ideas and is willing to work with you so that you get exactly what you're looking for! I would highly recommend anyone looking for pen storage they can travel with or everyday carry go to nostr:nprofile1qqs07xqktt77qzzj6jdyuyckexqu0tcpvnqczrqtcrlyr5mpm4720uqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9emkjmn9qyvhwumn8ghj7urewfsk66ty9enxjct5dfskvtnrdakshy532m. Besides him going out of his way to produce good quality work, his prices are reasonable (almost too good) and he's very prompt with shipping. It should go without saying but he accepts BTC through the lightning network. https://i.nostr.build/tWbvJQxA3KAiuIBW.jpg I love my three pen rolls. They all serve individual purposes in my pen collection and are purpose built for that. I'm sure at some point I'll want another one or need one as a gift for someone else and when that day comes I'll be asking nostr:nprofile1qqs07xqktt77qzzj6jdyuyckexqu0tcpvnqczrqtcrlyr5mpm4720uqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9emkjmn9qyvhwumn8ghj7urewfsk66ty9enxjct5dfskvtnrdakshy532m.

Today's #EDC post! I want to try to do more of these kinds of posts. I quite like the EDC trend, so much so that I actually have an EDC folder on my phone with all the things I use most in it. 1. Penroll by nostr:nprofile1qqs07xqktt77qzzj6jdyuyckexqu0tcpvnqczrqtcrlyr5mpm4720uqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9emkjmn9qyvhwumn8ghj7urewfsk66ty9enxjct5dfskvtnrdakshy532m containing the following pens: Black Asvine V126 inked with Diamine Sherwood Green, Blue Asvine P20 inked with Murasaki-Shikibu Iroshizuku Purple, Carbon Fibre Monteverde Innova inked with Sailor Manyo Yu Sunset, - Blue MaJohn A1 inked with Diamine Oxblood, Blue Sailor Tuzu inked with Diamine Oxford Blue. 2.

My most recent pairing. The Asvine V200 paired with Diamine Black Ivy. https://i.nostr.build/DCBo7n2qX1WyYaZE.jpg I could have paired it with a brighter ink, but I wanted to test out the Black Ivy and they both showed up within a few days of each other. So far, so good on the V200. Besides the little o-rings on the back coming off pretty easy, it's a very nice, high-end feeling pen. Just don't post it and you're good. https://i.nostr.build/RzJY4eLHqVd3Q8iZ.jpg I tried gluing the o-rings in there but I just made a mess so I don't post it now. It's another good #EDC pen that feels substantial and is backed by a surprising quality. Good work Asvine! All in, I would say this is a great pen for a decent price. I highly recommend picking one up! In related news, I'm going to try to do some more of these posts this month as the giveaway took up almost all of my posts last month so I'm going to push the second #pengiveaway to the last week of November to compensate! https://i.nostr.build/doJjlOk5vr9ykk0P.jpg As always, may your pen always be inked! 🖋 #penstr #letters #fountainpens #artstr
