Let's pretend it's October (From Sarah)

Hi Reader! I'm running behind just like you (unless you're better than me, and you DON'T feel surprise that there's only like five weeks left in the year...) Anyway, let's pretend it's October, and here's the October/November Stamp Fans. Click here to download the Stamp Fans letter Also, I finally got my Sketch Book tour posted. So here it is in all its glory! Click here to check out the YouTube video I have been keeping up with my daily journaling (Hobonitchi Cousin) and a wide variety of pens. My daily drivers right now would be a Pilot Capless VP Birch in an F nib, a couple Sailor 1911Ls in M nibs, and a Pilot 823 and 743 both in M nibs. I am in a really, really happy pen place right now :). For fun and artistry, I'm also constantly playing with my flex nibs. I have two Stylosuites and just got one new one that's got a 14kt gold flex commander nib. It's so juicy it's like writing with a wet feather. I'm in love. What are you working on? Sarah G. |

That kind of IRL kinship once again blew my heart wide open. So, my whole body hurts, but my heart is crazy full! I drew a couple of the people. I'll share it in the next note because I don't have a picture right now... Me at the conference about to do a little...
Your patience is a warm hug to me Reader! Once again I skipped a month in staying in touch. If you noticed... thanks for being patient with me :). (This is what happens when we haven't done dishes regularly enough...) Between kids and their school, a husband and his chores, my life and work and health... It's just always a lot ya know! And it still rubs me the wrong way because if I could arrange my priorities, this is actually first and most fun. So, that's a whole thing. The one silver...
Heya Reader! I'll just write (From Sarah) in the title this last time so you remember who this is. 😂 You might have signed up after following me on LinkedIn, or after attending the DC International Fountain Pen Show. This is my art letter. Anyways. Earlier this month I sent the last Stamp Fans note and then shut it down. It is so freaking meaningful to me that it will be missed — Thank you Kim, truly! (A magnificent experiment from this year) There's something really bittersweet about the...
