[Pen/Pencil Review] BIC Star Wars Collection
Anyone who knows me knows I’m a Star Trek girl. I grew up on it. I learned storytelling from it. My first FanGirl crush was on DeForest Kelly as Dr. McCoy. BUT…BUT…I have a lot more Star Wars STUFF. I like Star Wars, I do. It’s mindblowing what it’s been able to accomplish and invent, […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Parker Urban Rollerball
This one’s been a long time coming. I bought the Parker Urban in navy blue at Pen Place in Kansas City when we went in April for Spectrum. I did get this one on clearance, but it’s still really nice. The Urban rollerball is an elegant design with an ergonomic, bullet-shaped barrel – which means […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Federal Reserve Bank Souvenirs
This is going to be a slapdash type of post. We starting to prep for ArmadilloCon. There are some other things happening this week that are occupying brain space. So it won’t be a “traditional” review post. But it’ll be something. 😎 I get to go and do weirdly random things in my Day Job. […]

I try to give equal time to pens. This is another Pilot Precise V5 RT (retractable) This is the Deco Collection in assorted colors . I don’t remember spending a whole lot for them, so don’t judge the MSRP too harshly. This pen has a solid feeling point for the heavy-handed writers. This is a […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Pilot G2 PenStylus 0.7mm Black Ink

[Pen/Pencil Review] Rerun of a SoonerCon Pen/Flashlight Combo
This was a post I wrote in 2014 coming back from SoonerCon. Today I’m exhausted – I have herded all the cats I can herd today. There’s a bunch of moving parts plans happening this evening — however, I’m trying to be better about pretty much everything, so I’m going to keep on schedule even […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Multi-Function Office Buddy Pen – Black Ink

[Pen/Pencil Review] Hedgehog Pencil Sharper
This is going to be a completely ridiculous post because it’s been a rough weekend and challenging day thus far. We lost a good friend unexpectedly on Saturday. The world seems a bit dimmer without Casey Sledge in it. So, to try to return a bit of a smile and light – I give you […]
