Weekend Pen Spotlight

This week, Goldspot Pens has launched a brand new help section that features interactive question and answer searches that enable you to get quick answers about pens, pen care, store policies and shipping times. You may also ask our customer service a question directly about your order or if your question was not already answered by our knolwedgebase. Bleubug is celebrating one year of blogging by giving away a vintage Parker Vacumatic fountain pen. Earlier this week, we posted a video sneak peek of the Visconti Homo Sapiens pen on our Facebook Page. Inkyjournal reviews a colorful Sheaffer Skrip Red fountain pen ink and rates it as "Moleskine proof." As an owner of a Moleskine that likes to use a variety of fountain pen inks, I can certainly find the rating system useful. Pocket Blonde is the next host of the Carnival of Pen, Pencil and Paper, which will be posted Tuesday, March 9th. If you have an article or blog post you would like to submit, use this form. Fresh off the (word) presses, Brian from Edison Pen Co wrote a great article In Praise of Steel Nibs. I always find myself having the same discussion on a weekly basis as well, "should I spend the extra money for a gold nib on my fountain pen?" If you pick a well-made steel nib, the writing experience can be just as satisfying without having to shell out the high cost. Lastly, I would like to remind our readers that we are running our "Great, BIG Weekend Sale" until Sunday night at 11:59pm Eastern Standard Time. Look out for the blue sale tags to find extra discounts on all your favorite writing instruments, inks and accessories. It took us hours to put the tags on 1,000's of products on our website. And don't forget the free standard shipping within the US for orders of $99 or more. Check out our Weekend Sale Flyer for more deals.
