The Berol Finewriter is as the name suggests a good all round writing pen. It could also be used for sketching or drawing & the long tip would make it ideally suited to use with stencils & templates. This felt pen has a green plastic barrel with silver text displaying the logo, the end cap is colour coded with the ink & fits snugly on the barrel when posted.
5 Popular Brush Pens + Video Demo’s
In this guide, we are going to show you which are the 5 most popular brush pens with video demos and tutorials.
USB Pens Are Luxury Novelties
Call me simple, but I love pens that have more than one function. Doesn’t really matter what they do besides write, as long as it’s something completely different.
That’s why I like USB pens – write with one end, steal top-secret files with the other.
Thing is, I’ve always thought of them essentially as novelties, as in pens that really are more just about fun than practicality. So I was a bit surprised to discover that there are USB pens made by some high-end brands.
Right Time For A Handwriting Service?
Here’s a little irony: At a time when handwriting is being supplanted by technology, a growing little niche market has emerged for handwriting services.
It makes sense. The supply of the handwriting-capable is dwindling, so the demand for those who can still make neat cursive words is increasing.
The Chicago Tribune recently ran a piece about a new start-up called Handiemail that uses the digital marketplace to sell analog handwriting services.
The 1000 Journals Project & An Update From Creator Someguy
I know I’m getting to the party really late, but I’ve just seen a documentary that I’d heartily recommend for every pen enthusiast, sketcher, doodler and journaler who hasn’t already seen it.
It’s called “1,000 Journals” and it’s about a project started in 2000 by a San Francisco artist called “someguy.” The idea was very simple: Someguy sent 1,000 journals out into the world at random, and people made contributions to them, then passed the journals on until they were full. Then, completed journals were to be returned to someguy.
