[Pen/Pencil Review] Pilot Opt – Stardust – 0.7mm ballpoint
We return to Pilot this week late, as seems usual for this time of year.. This is the Pilot Opt ballpoint pen with the Stardust body. This is just a darned cool looking pen. This is one of Pilot’s “fashion” ballpoint pen lines. The Stardust is a navy blue barrel with silver glitter for a […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Uni Jetstream 4 & 1 Color 0.38mm – Navy Body
Not too long ago I got on a seriously fine point kick on Jetpens, and today’s multi-function pen caught my eye. This is the Uni Jetstream 4 & 1 Color 0.38mm Ballpoint Multi-Pen plus 0.5mm Pencil. I got the navy barrel. I was intrigued by the fineness of the points, so I had to get […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] The Iwako Elephant Novelty Eraser from JetPens.com
I love when JetPens.com has a sample giveaway for reviewers. I sign up every single time (and not just because I like being sent stuff for free–though BONUS!) because I always seem to get something I would never, ever buy on my own and either find what I get amusing (the pink gel pen) or […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] The Pilot Hi-Tec-C 0.4mm in Pink Ink
A couple of weeks ago, JetPens.com did a random “We’re giving away samples to bloggers” deal.

[Pen/Pencil Review] Going to Extremes – The OHTO Pieni Needle-point 0.3mm Ballpoint Pen
Last week I wrote about the largest pen I now own – the Lehr Arts .50 caliber handmade bullet pen. This week I’ll begin a short series on the smallest pens I now own. Jimmy and I did a run on JetPens.com last week. I wanted to do an experiment to see if there really […]
My plate…it overfloweth with things to do. So this week’s pen blog is a “Wish List” post. Things I’m looking forward to trying out when I can make it happen – and the blame lies FIRMLY on JetPens.com. THIS IS NOT A REVIEW. I HAVE NOT USED THE PRODUCTS MENTIONED – YET. I’ve won several […]
[Pen Pencil Review] The Ohto Promecha 500P by Guest Blogger Jimmy Simpson
This week’s pen/pencil review is done by my husband, Jimmy. Little did I know when I married him that he had a love of mechanical/drafting pencils that nearly rivals my pen addiction. Brad from Jetpens.com was kind enough to enable both of us in his shipment – since Jimmy was the one who introduced me […]
[Pen Review] Uni-Ball COLORS Pencil Lead – from JetPens.Com
I really am trying to be good about getting pen/pencil reviews more regular. Part of that is thanks to Brad at JetPens.com and the care package he sent me a couple of weeks ago in the middle of my GoDaddy battle from hades. One of the interesting bits Brad sent me was colored pencil lead […]
