I have to wonder if I’ve used this title before? But, ironically, we have a lot of Endless Recorder Notebook reviews this week. It seems that Endless is making a real effort to get its name out to the stationery community right now. There’s also lots of enthusiasm around Inktober this week and art supplies and artists using fountain pens. So if you’re looking for some creative inspiration for using your fountain pens and ink, this is the Link Love week for you!
