I am a pen junkie. I’m completely addicted to pens. There, I said it. It’s a genetic addiction, as my mother was addicted to pens. She got me hooked early in life. I remember as a young girl, she and I would love to go to the office supply store together. We went to this little one room store on Hwy 9 in Roswell. There were no Office Giant stores back then. Just little Mom’n'Pop office supply stores. And I LOVED it! They had little white notepads on every shelf, so you could try out each and every pen to find the perfect one. I was just as happy in an office supply store as any toy store.
In my desk drawer, I still have a few of Mom’s lifelong favorite pens. These pens are as old as I am. I even have one of my grandfather’s ancient ink pens, the kind with an inner chamber which must be hand filled with ink.
So, it only seems natural to include pens in my marketing budget. I got a sample of these and couldn’t wait to order my own. I loved the translucent barrel, the little squiggle top, and the soft grip. And they write really well!
No, they have nothing to do with photography. I don’t care. I have my very own pens!! 250 of them actually. My mom would be so proud.
Want a pen? Email me … I’ll send you one!

Taz - So cute! I’m addicted to office supplies AND packaging supplies. Its a scary thing!
Jena Golden - How funny! I got a sample of the same ones in red & I love them! I like your blue though.
Tiffany L - And they photograph so nicely too!
Julia Radlick - I LOVE these Shannon! That color is just divine.
Kimberly - You’re not the only pen junkie. I’ve been in pen rehab for a few years banned by my husband to purchase even one more pen for the house!!! That’s what happens when you’ve been in pharmaceutical sales. I guess it would be wrong for me to request a pen….but I guess I wouldn’t be purchasing it……;)
