When I was at the mine, I ended up accidentally creating a pen club in the back of our meeting room.

In today's video, I argue the merits of making clubs and on Nostr that goes tenfold woth all the options we have for digital spaces!

Enjoy!

Would join a pen club

I will keep that in mind!

What pen you write with?

I write with many pens!

Asvine V200

Majohn A1

Lamy Aion

Those are a few of my commonly-used pens!

The retractable nib on the A1 is a feature that I haven't seen before, how do you find that?

It's the best part of the pen! So a few things on this style of pen:

The click-pen makes everyday use very viable because there's no uncapping time. Just click and go. Plus it's fun!

These pens come with refillable cartridges with little rubber stoppers that not only expand the ink capacity to the maximum, but show allow you to pre-fill them so you can spend less time messing around when changing cartridges.

The cheaper price tag allows you to pick up a few for the same cost as a more expensive pen, adding to the "everyday carry" value as you can lose/damage one without a massive loss. Obviously one wants to be careful with their things but on the off-chance your pen goes missing, you can replace it very easily!

I realizenow that I should shoot a video on this particular topic. Bahahaha

Yeah you probably should do a few videos, sounds like you know what to look for in a good pen. I might even consider grabbing an A1 just on the strength of that write-up.

This is more or less what my collection consists of:

Lamy AL-Star

Parker Vector XL

Kaweco Brass Sport

Those are nice choices!

I'm a big fan of the Lamy and the Kaweco!!

And thank you so much! I appreciate that!

The Parker is a surprisingly good pen at around 10 euro

Nice! I might need to look into it!

PEN15 is the only pen club I've ever been a part of... 🤣😆
