Just a quick housekeeping heads-up. Jesi, Ana AND Laura will all be out of the office for the next couple days. Jesi and Ana are going to be at the DC Pen Show — working and playing and generally having a good time. Laura is going on a little family holiday getaway. Soooo, what does this mean for you?
The Desk will be a bit quiet for the next few days but we will be back in the chair on Wednesday, August 6. In the meantime, enjoy Link Love this week and we will have pen show reports and new content when we return. xoxoxo!
