Back from San Francisco and just in time to launch ourselves head first into planner season. Hobonichi did their official 3-day rolling kick-off this weekend which may have been missed by many in America as it coincided with our Labor Weekend festivities. JetPens will get you up to speed with their Planner recommendations.
If you missed the SF Pen Show or want to relive the highlights, I pulled out some of the links from this week into their own section, including the Pen Addict Podcast recap where Brad, Myke and I relive our favorite moments, as well as some great photos from Kelli at Mountain of Ink and a massive haul from The Poor Penman. Now we know why he’s poor.
