[Pen/Pencil Review] The Swingline SmartTouch Stapler and Swingline Premium Chisel Point Staples from Shoplet.Com
This will be a slightly different review. Shoplet.com has a program that lets office supply bloggers/reviewers get supplies from them in exchange for reviews. I thought I’d try it out. They do have guidelines for their reviews, so bear with me – that’s where it will be a bit different. Last Wednesday (2/1), after an [...]
[Pen/Pencil Review] The UNI Kuru Toga .05mm Mechanical Pencil
My husband ordered a UNI Kuru Toga .05mm pencil and then gave it to me. It’s an intriguing concept, I have to admit, and I was happy to give it a shot. Of course, being ordered by my husband, he bought the black body. I would’ve gone for the green… UNI (Uni-Ball) designed the Kuru [...]
[Pen/Pencil Review] The Sharpie Liquid Pencil
My friend, Meredith, asked me if I’ve reviewed the Sharpie Liquid Pencil yet. I haven’t, and in fact, I hadn’t used the Liquid Pencil in a while and had to go find it in my massive stash of pens and pencils – or, more accurately, I purloined my husband’s from his desk. We both played [...]

[Pen/Pencil Review] Skull and Roses Novelty Stationary Set from Michaels
For those who know my fiction-writing don’t need any explanation for why this novelty set caught my eye at Michaels. I write Death in The Four Redheads of the Apocalypse series from Yard Dog Press. So cheap skull and roses stationary pieces for 99ยข a piece made me giggle. I’ll be sporting my new “gear” [...]
[Pen/Pencil Review] The TomBow Zoom 505sh 0.5mm Mechanical Pencil
The Tom Bow Zoom 505sh is the matching pencil to my previously reviewed 505bw rollerball. I had a review written about this pencil back when I first received it, but it went…somewhere. And now I’m kind of glad about that, it’s given me a chance to revisit the review. The first thing I did with [...]
Pencil Review – PILOT G2
For the first pen and pencil review, I’m starting with one of my favorite brands – PILOT. I’ve been a fan of the G2 INK for years. So you’d think I’d LOVE the G2 pencil. Not so much. There’s something about the barrel that doesn’t do it for me. In fact, it’s pretty much the [...]
