Pen Chat #7 - November 22, 2024

In this video I talk about various fountain pen hobby topics including: my inky plans for December, total hobby revenue and detailed spending for 2024, plans for 2025 in terms of pen fast and journaling, and my pen of the year plus how it disrupted by top 5 fountain pen ranking. A few off topics like Mom's medical paperwork, the weather and outdoor work at the end.
Special thank yous go out to:
Pen friend CS for the Inkvent and Colorvent samples.
Pen friend MW for the Canson Watercolor paper
and for all the many generous recent contributions to the channel over the past year and more ... thank you all so very much. I have received several other really amazing things that came in recently too which I will show when the December ink project is finished.
